British authorities have finished searching the former residence of Prince Andrew after his arrest last week on public misconduct charges. The investigation stems from his connections to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
British law enforcement officials announced Tuesday they have completed their search of Prince Andrew’s previous residence in southeastern England, following his detention last week on charges related to misconduct in public office.
The Duke of York’s Thursday arrest was connected to an ongoing investigation examining his relationship with deceased American sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Thames Valley Police Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright released a statement saying, “Officers have now left the location we have been searching in Berkshire. This concludes the search activity that commenced following our arrest of a man in his sixties from Norfolk on Thursday.”
Recently released Epstein files from the U.S. Justice Department last month contained documents suggesting that the monarch’s younger sibling may have shared classified government materials with the convicted financier during his tenure as a trade representative.
Prince Andrew has consistently maintained his innocence regarding any improper conduct connected to Epstein, though he has expressed regret about their association.
In a related development, London police announced Friday they are reaching out to former security personnel who previously served Prince Andrew, encouraging anyone with information about sexual offenses linked to Epstein to contact authorities.
