LONDON (Reuters) - The former chief executive of the publisher of Britain's Daily Mirror said phone-hacking carried out by journalists she employed was concealed from her, as she gave evidence on Monday in a lawsuit brought by Prince Harry against the newspaper.

Sly Bailey – chief executive of Trinity Mirror, publisher of the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and Sunday People, between 2003 and 2012 – told London's High Court that allegations of unlawful information-gathering were "a matter of great regret".
