Police to investigate Prince Harry pictures theft

The police are investigating how The Sun managed to obtain the pictures of Prince Harry fondling a girl, Natalie Pinkham, in a nightclub. Pinkham, who owned the original photographs, contacted Fulham police to report that several hundred negatives from her private collection had been stolen when she moved house earlier this summer. Copies sold to The Sun were published on Tuesday under the headline "Dirty Harry". It transpired that they were taken three years ago. Lawyers for Pinkham, a television presenter, have also launched a legal action against the Daily Mail for reprinting the pictures on Wednesday. (Via The Independent)
