According to Aljazeera two British newspapers, The Sunday Times and The Sun are to pay unspecified damages to singer Yusuf Islam, previously known as Cat Stevens, over erroneous articles linking him to terrorists. The stories in question were published in October 2004. Both papers ran correction stories in November, yet also agreed to pay for Steven's legal costs and further substantial damages. Both The Sunday Times and The Sun are owned by Rupport Murdoch and published by Times Newspapers Limited.
