Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Gets High Court Summons in Fraud Case
The judge said the former prince may face questions about a disputed £750,000 payment and other transfers linked to Nebahat Isbilen’s fraud claims.
- Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was served a High Court summons requiring him to give evidence in a fraud trial against Turkish businessman Selman Turk.
- Nebahat Isbilen, a Turkish national, alleges her former adviser Turk misled her into paying £750,000 to Mountbatten-Windsor in 2019, which she believed was for passport assistance.
- Justice Adam Johnson approved the summons last month, ruling that fairness requires Turk to call evidence he considers relevant; Mountbatten-Windsor faces no accusations of wrongdoing.
- Mountbatten-Windsor is expected to testify on or around December 15, becoming the first royal to receive such a witness summons since the 19th Century.
- The High Court trial begins mid-November, offering a rare opportunity to hear Mountbatten-Windsor's explanations about his financial dealings after years of questions about his wealth and transparency.
