LONDON, Jan 22 (Reuters) - Prince Harry's lawyer David

Sherborne said on Wednesday the settlement of the lawsuit

against Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers (NGN) was a

monumental victory that represents what he described as a

vindication.

Outside court, Sherborne said that after endless denials by

NGN the group has been held to account but that many of those

behind the practice remained in senior positions.
