Hugh Grant says the publisher of The Sun newspaper used a "deliberate policy of false denials" to prevent him from suing for invasion of his privacy.

A witness statement from him alleges that the newspaper instructed private investigators to break into his home and steal his private information.

The actor was at the High Court for legal arguments as News UK tried to have his case thrown out.
