Phone-hacking scandal: Mulcaire loses evidence appeal

Private investigator Glenn Mulcaire has lost his appeal against two court orders that may force him to reveal who ordered him to hack phones.

A High Court panel heard the appeal at the Royal Courts of Justice in November but had reserved its judgement.

Mulcaire had appealed to try to avoid having to answer questions in civil proceedings that could incriminate him.

After the judgement was handed down, he issued a statement saying he would now take his case to the Supreme Court.
