The London High Court awarded Ghanem al-Masarir more than £3 million in damages after finding compelling evidence that his phone was hacked with Pegasus spyware sold by NSO Group. The judge ruled the hacking was directed or authorised by the Saudi government or its agents, and that the Saudi government was probably responsible for his 2018 physical assault in London. It remains unclear if Saudi Arabia will pay the damages or appeal the decision.
