Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor arrested at Sandringham estate

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the man formerly known as Prince Andrew, has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office, the BBC reported on Thursday.

The younger brother of King Charles has been in increasingly serious trouble over revelations about his links to the late U.S. sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Earlier, British newspapers reported that six unmarked police cars and around eight plain clothed officers had arrived at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate in eastern England.

Thames Valley Police said earlier this month officers were considering allegations that Mountbatten-Windsor had passed confidential government documents to Epstein, according to files recently released by the U.S. government.

Mountbatten-Windsor, the second son of the late Queen Elizabeth, has always denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, and said he regrets their friendship. He has not responded to requests for comment since the latest release of documents. (Reuters)
