On the morning of February 19, vehicles were spotted arriving at the royal estate of Sandringham in Norfolk, where Mountbatten-Windsor currently resides. Shortly after, the British police released a statement regarding the arrest, in which the name of the detained individual was not disclosed.
In an official statement from law enforcement, it was said: "Today, as part of an investigation, a man in his sixties from Norfolk was arrested on suspicion of abuse of power. Searches are being conducted at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk. The man is in custody."
Allegations Against the Former Prince
According to the British police, a complaint is currently being considered, alleging that Andrew provided Epstein with confidential materials. Documents related to the Epstein case published in the US mention that he passed reports on trips to Singapore, Hong Kong, and Vietnam to Epstein, as well as important data on investment opportunities. In this regard, the anti-monarchist organization Republic has approached the Thames Valley Police (covering Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, and Oxfordshire) to request an investigation into allegations of abuse of power and breach of state secrets.Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
The 66-year-old Andrew has always denied all allegations and claims that his actions did not violate the law. Nevertheless, in October 2025, the king stripped him of his title as prince and all other remaining titles, and shortly before that, Andrew voluntarily renounced his title as Duke of York.
The public in the UK is actively demanding that Andrew testify in the US regarding his connections with the convicted pedophile Epstein.
