Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to take police to court over his arrest, report says

A High Court judge approved his challenge to search warrants as police investigate alleged misuse of public office tied to Epstein files.

  • Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Duke of York, has been granted permission for a judicial review challenging the legality of search warrants used during his arrest earlier this year.
  • On his 66th birthday, Thames Valley Police arrested the former prince at Marsh Farm, investigating allegations he shared sensitive government information with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
  • Almost 12 hours of questioning followed his arrest, though the investigation faces significant hurdles as the US Department of Justice reportedly refuses to share unredacted Epstein files.
  • A private hearing at the High Court is scheduled for later this week to determine whether to release specific documents related to the judicial review of the search warrants.
  • Estranged from the King, who previously expressed "deepest concern" regarding the allegations, the former prince reportedly feels he is "living in limbo" while awaiting the investigation's conclusion.
