Sting has paid his former police bandmates – guitarist Andy Summers and drummer Stewart Copeland – over $800,000 (as reported by the BBC), after the two launched legal proceedings alleging that they were underpaid royalties.
The case, which was launched last year against Sting and his publishing company, claimed that the pair were owed between $2 million and $10.75 million in royalties for the Police's repertoire of hit songs.
