91 voicemail PINs – suggesting 91 potential victims.

Previously Scotland Yard had said that information found in records kept by Mulcaire who was employed by the newspaper, showed that he had 91 voicemail PINs – suggesting 91 potential victims.
But the High Court has heard that the new police investigation expects to find many more victims. And that could open the door for more celebrities to take legal action against the News of the World.
The disclosure came as it emerged that the actress Sienna Miller may have had her emails hacked into. Ms Miller has been offered £100,000 to halt her case against the News of the World. She is yet to accept or reject the offer.
But while the News of the World waits to hear whether Ms Miller will settle, they could now have to defend themselves against scores of other claims.
The High Court heard that 40 detectives working on the new investigation – codenamed Operation Weeting – are currently trawling through 9,200 pages of records seized from Mr Mulcaire.
