British Palace Vows Cooperation in Probe of Andrew’s Epstein Links

(MENAFN) Britain’s royal palace said Monday that it is ready to assist police investigating allegations involving former Prince Andrew and the late US sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Thames Valley Police confirmed that they are reviewing claims that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, as he is now known, shared confidential documents with Epstein during his tenure as the UK’s trade envoy. The former royal has consistently denied any wrongdoing.

In a statement, Buckingham Palace said, “The King has made clear, in words and through unprecedented actions, his profound concern at allegations which continue to come to light in respect of Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor's conduct.”

The palace clarified that addressing the specific allegations is Mountbatten-Windsor’s responsibility, but affirmed its willingness to cooperate with law enforcement. “While the specific claims in question are for Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor to address, if we are approached by Thames Valley Police, we stand ready to support them as you would expect,” the statement said.

The palace also reiterated its stance toward victims of abuse: “As was previously stated, Their Majesties’ thoughts and sympathies have been, and remain with, the victims of any and all forms of abuse.”

The allegations arose following the latest release of Epstein-related documents by the US Department of Justice. An email dated November 30, 2010, appears to indicate that Mountbatten-Windsor forwarded Epstein “visit reports for Vietnam, Singapore, Hong Kong and Shenzhen” concerning an official trip he made to Southeast Asia.
