Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Investigated Over Alleged Royal Ascot Incident
Caption: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Investigated Over Alleged Royal Ascot Incident. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is reportedly being investigated over an allegation of inappropriate behaviour towards a woman at Royal Ascot in 2002. The allegation is said to form part of a wider investigation by Thames Valley Police into possible misconduct in public office. Police said they were “following all reasonable lines of inquiry” but declined to comment on specific allegations. Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested in February and questioned under caution over allegations linked to his former role as a UK trade envoy. Investigators are also examining potential offences including alleged sexual misconduct, corruption, fraud and the sharing of confidential information. The inquiry was triggered by material released from US Department of Justice files connected to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. The former royal denies all wrongdoing, while police continue to assess additional claims, including allegations involving Windsor in 2010. Detectives are reportedly facing difficulties obtaining original US documents related to the Epstein investigation, which could delay the British inquiry.
