plans to contact the actor Jude Law following claims that his mobile phone was
hacked during a visit to the US, officials have told the BBC.

| Hackers allegedly accessed Jude Law's mobile phone while he was at John F Kennedy Airport in New York |
It is
alleged that a story published by the News of the World newspaper in 2003 was
based on information obtained from the star's voicemail.
If the
accusation is proved to be true, Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation could face
charges in the US.
News
International, the UK newspaper arm of News Corp, denies the claims.
Hackers
allegedly accessed Jude Law's mobile phone while he was at John F Kennedy
Airport in New York City.
An article
in the News of the World later gave a detailed account of the actor's
communications with an assistant.
Law's phone
would have been using an American mobile network if used in the US, which could
open the door to charges under US federal law, says the BBC's Steve Kingstone
in New York.
