Epstein case: Andrea Windsor-Mountbatten was arrested by the British police for abuse of office. The BBC and other British media reported it. The arrest took place at the residence of King Charles III’s brother, recently stripped of the title of prince, on his 66th birthday. He is accused of sharing confidential information with pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein in his former capacity as a trade emissary of the London government.
According to the reconstruction of the Daily Mail, six plainclothes police cars arrived at King Charles’ estate in Norfolk shortly after 8 this morning. Shortly thereafter, a convoy of cars was photographed leaving the residence.
Andrea was staying at Sandringham after being evicted by her older brother from Windsor’s Royal Lodge following the Epstein case. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently said that “no one is above the law” in the United Kingdom.
Andrea has not yet been heard by investigators who are considering a series of charges relating to sex trafficking, abuse of office and sexual trafficking but King Charles has assured that he is ready to collaborate with the police in the investigation.
The late Queen Elizabeth’s second son may have passed sensitive information to pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein in his role as the UK’s trade envoy. He is also believed to have smuggled a woman into Buckingham Palace, who may have smuggled her into Britain aboard Epstein’s own “Lolita Express” jet. Andrea denies any wrongdoing.
After the news of Andrea Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest for abuse of office, the Thames Valley Police published a note in which, according to national guides, it does not mention her name but explains the context of what happened. “As part of the investigation, we have arrested a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of abuse of office and we are carrying out searches at some addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk”, reads the note released by the BBC and which underlines that the man is still in custody.
«We will not name the man arrested, as required by national guidelines. We also remind you that the case is currently ongoing, so any publication must be carried out with caution to avoid incurring contempt of court”, specifies the statement.
“Following careful consideration, we have launched an investigation into this allegation of abuse of public duty,” said Deputy Police Chief Oliver Wright. “It is important to protect the integrity and objectivity of our investigation as we work with our partners to investigate this alleged crime,” it adds, “we understand the significant public interest in this case and will provide updates at an appropriate time.”
