News International, the UK division of News Corp, is expected to pay 3 million pounds ($4.7 million) to settle phone hacking claims made by the family of 13-year-old murder victim Milly Dowler, according to Reuters.

Evidence suggests that Dowler’s phone was hacked by employees of News International’s since-shuttered tabloid News of the World when she went missing in 2002. Journalists at the paper allegedly intercepted and deleted messages from family members and friends trying to reach Dowler, giving her family false hope that she was still alive and checking her voicemail. Police fear that evidence may have been lost in the process.

News International and Mark Lewis, the family’s lawyer, have declined to confirm details of the settlement.
