London, February 19: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former British prince and brother of King Charles, has been arrested by UK authorities on suspicion of ‘misconduct in public office’ amid the ongoing Epstein files investigation. Mountbatten-Windsor is facing allegations of passing confidential government documents to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Earlier reports fromThe Daily Telegraphrevealed that British police arrived at Mountbatten-Windsor's residence in eastern England. A significant police presence, including six unmarked vehicles and approximately eight officers in plain clothes, was seen at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate.
A member of the British royal family and the second son of the late Queen Elizabeth, Mountbatten-Windsor has consistently denied any involvement in Epstein's criminal activities. However, he has publicly expressed regret over their association, following Epstein’s death in prison in 2019.
