  • The arrest followed allegations that Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor shared reports of official visits while serving as UK trade envoy, and he was arrested at his Sandringham estate on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
  • Thames Valley Police said officers searched Wood Farm, Norfolk, and Royal Lodge, Windsor, Berkshire, arrested a man in his sixties, and released him under investigation.
  • King Charles III released a statement expressing deepest concern and stressing that 'the law must take its course,' while US politicians urged accountability for figures linked to Epstein.
