Court rules police raids on Mountbatten-Windsor's homes were 'unlawful'

A criminal investigation into Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is ongoing despite the search warrants that allowed police officers to raid two of his properties being ruled unlawful, the High Court has heard.

The former Duke of York had launched a legal challenge against Thames Valley Police over the lawfulness of the warrants issued by a judge at the Old Bailey allowing officers to raid his residence on the Sandringham Estate and his former Windsor home, Royal Lodge, in February.

Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office following allegations he may have shared sensitive information with Jeffrey Epstein during his time as the UK’s trade envoy.

Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor has denied any wrongdoings.
