LONDON (Reuters) -Prince Harry is suing a British tabloid publisher to focus attention on alleged unlawful activities and not because of "some vendetta against the press", his lawyer told London's High Court on Monday.

Harry, King Charles' younger son, is one of more than 100 high-profile figures suing the Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN), the publisher of the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and Sunday People, for alleged phone-hacking and other unlawful behaviour between 1991 and 2011.
