Police Call for Witnesses After Human Trafficking Claims Appear in Epstein Files
Surrey Police seek witnesses for alleged human trafficking and sexual assault in Virginia Water between 1994-1996, after reviewing files from the US Department of Justice and FBI reports.
- Earlier this month, Surrey Police urged people with information to come forward about alleged 1990s human trafficking and sexual assault in the Epstein files, adding they found no evidence the allegations were previously reported.
- Documents show the alleged incidents occurred in Virginia Water between 1994 and 1996, following an FBI report from July 2020 alleging abuse involving Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Ghislaine Maxwell.
- Graphic allegations in the documents include the anonymous tipster claiming the woman who alleges abuse was restrained and `tortured with electrical shocks` by Ghislaine Maxwell while the former prince watched, and also hit by a dark blue car `driven by Prince Andrew`.
- Metropolitan Police said `initial enquiries into these specific allegations have begun` regarding protection officers after concerns from one unnamed officer that some turned a `blind eye` to Andrew's visits to Epstein's island.
- With forces reviewing material, Chancellor Rachel Reeves said Andrew `owes it to the victims` to come forward, though he has not responded to the latest allegations.
