Met chief visits Washington to seek help over Mandelson files

The Met commissioner seeks full access to Epstein-related emails to support UK probes into alleged leaks by Lord Mandelson and Prince Andrew, amid victim concerns over redactions.

  • This week, Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley is traveling to Washington to press US authorities for the release of unredacted exchanges between Lord Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein.
  • Scotland Yard opened an inquiry into allegations that Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor leaked sensitive government information to Epstein, which can carry a life sentence.
  • Records show Mandelson allegedly shared details of a 500 billion euro bailout in 2010, while Andrew reportedly forwarded official trip reports from 2010 and 2011 to Epstein.
  • Obtaining unredacted records through mutual legal assistance typically takes about a year, while victims' lawyers criticized the US government for mishandling sensitive file releases last month.
  • Potential refusal from the US Department of Justice may delay the release of unredacted files, as investigators face delays in securing key evidence.
