Andrew arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office as King says 'law must take its course'

Summary

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested and is in custody on suspicion of misconduct in public office - read the police statement in full

King Charles says he "learned with the deepest concern" of Andrew's arrest, adding "the law must take its course"

Neither he nor Buckingham Palace were informed in advance of the arrest, the BBC understands

Police are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk, as well as at the Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park where Andrew lived until recently

Photos show vehicles, believed to be police cars, arriving at the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk earlier this morning

It comes after Thames Valley Police said they were assessing a complaint over the alleged sharing of confidential material by the former prince with late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein

Andrew, who turns 66 today, has previously denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein; he has not responded to the BBC's requests for comment on the specific allegations in relation to the release of millions of Epstein files in January

Investigation could be about more than the Epstein files

It's worth nothing that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has not been arrested for anything surrounding Virginia Giuffre.

What's led to him being arrested is information in the Epstein files around activities while he was a trade envoy.

UK ex-Prince Andrew arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the United Kingdom former royal, has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

A statement from Thames Valley police was released Thursday that said, “As part of the investigation, we have today (19/2) arrested a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office and are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk.”

"The man remains in police custody at this time.

King Charles II said after arrest that “the law must take its course” in the investigation of his brother.

Mountbatten-Windsor, the British former prince, was stripped of his title last year over his friendship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, amid ongoing furore over accusations against him of sexual assault, which he denies.

No 1 should be above the law, what we like to see here.
Some group of apprentice beat up a lady hawking in site oneday, she reported to the nearest station on the arrival of the officers, these 3 boys were resisting arrest struggling with the officers, all their bricklayer boss could say is *you can't arrest my boys unless the site engr is here. The intelligent young officer among the officers asked him, is that your engr bigger than the law?

For all those people who think that sexual immorality na victimless crime...and that sleeping around is ok...this is an end result.

Andrew just dey stick him instrument anywhere and anyhow...and that's what led him to keep the company of epstein, and as you can see this is the result.

Men and women, watch where you lie down.

Re: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Arrested By Police Over ‘Misconduct In Public Office’ by PigTormentor:
Imagine the world is prosecuting people for crimes but the US is not.
Brasil prosecuted their former president for trying to subvert an election just like Trump. The US instead allowed the convicted felon to run for office and somehow won.
The same US has failed so far to prosecute the same Trump for PDF crimes and others but the UK is about to prosecute a prince.
The US used to be the standard that the rest of the world looked up to, those days are now history.
Trump has destroyed the US world prestigious standards.
Some of us Americans are ashamed of what the country has been reduced to.
Can't wait to vote against any clown that remotely associated with that orange PDF with 34 felony convictions.

I used to think his family is untouchable because of the royal status. I guess he just won't be jailed in same jail meant for the masses.
Dude is indeed a disgrace to the royal family.
Re: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Arrested By Police Over ‘Misconduct In Public Office’ by wazobeer: 1:53pm On Feb 19
Good one. The law must apply to everyone.

The Epstein files case just shows the hypocrisy of Western justice system, especially that of America cos the case is being stalled.

If the people in the Epstein's files were black, we all know they'd have been jailed. Look at Diddy, R-Kelly, to mention a few.

Who will arrest Jagaban for destroying our country to the extent that he has invited Trump to recolonise Nigeria, after allowing him violate our sovereignty to kill innocent northerners while claiming to be looking for Muslim terrorists committing Christian genocide?

Maybe if Ayederu is arrested, our politicians will stop following his progreThief example and start employing well paid civil servants so we can have water flowing into houses like in London?

PANDORA PAPERS: Buhari visited Tinubu in corruption-tainted London villa acquired by Oyetola

Governor Oyetola, a relative of Mr Tinubu, may have sabotaged his own country by buying the exotic property as Nigeria made to seize it.

ByNicholas IbekweandTaiwo-Hassan Adebayo October 7, 2021 in Headline Stories, Pandora Papers Reading Time: 8 mins read

It was a meeting of two of Nigeria’s most influential politicians in London – President Muhammadu Buhari was visiting political kingmaker and senior member of his ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu.

In July, the presidency announced that Mr Buhari was heading to London for an education summit. The office also added that the president would also see his doctors for “medical check-up”.

Coincidentally, Mr Tinubu, who had travelled to London earlier, was also receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment in the British capital. So, a perfect setting for both men to meet was created.

Because some people in that west African country will shout witch-hunting the opposition as some are saying about ElRufai today. Some will say why now and not three years ago as if prosecution of criminal offence has a deadline, Look at how long ago this Prince committed the crime. In Nigeria some will say why arrest people from my tribe? Why arrest a Christian criminal and not a moslem criminal?

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has withdrawn the alleged money laundering suit it filed at the Federal High Court against Lagos Speaker Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa.

Naija News understands that the anti-graft did not give any particular reason for its application for withdrawal.

Following the application to withdraw, Justice Nicholas Oweibo discharged the ‘lien/Post No Debit’ placed on Obasa’s three accounts in Standard Chartered Bank.

The accounts are (US Dollars) 0001852063; (Current) 0001852056 and (Saving) 5002309624.

The judge also set aside the ex-parte orders he made on September 15, 2020, which led to the freezing of the accounts.

Recall that the court on September 15, 2020, granted an interim order freezing Obasa’s accounts following the EFCC’s application in a suit marked FHC/LCS/1064/2020.

The agency had said it was investigating the Speaker for the alleged offences of conspiracy, diversion of funds, abuse of office and money laundering.

But Justice Oweibo, on August 16, 2023, heard the application to unfreeze the accounts in his chamber.

During the hearing, the EFCC was represented by Mr. Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, while Obasa was represented by Mr. Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN).

The EFCC lawyer told the court that the application to unfreeze the accounts was pursuant to Section 44(2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and Sections 26, 29 and 34 (1) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004, and under the court’s inherent jurisdiction.

Section 44 of the Constitution concerns constitutional rights to property.

Justice Oweibo held: “It is hereby ordered that an order is hereby granted to the respondent/applicant setting aside the ex-parte orders of this court made on the 15th day of September 2020 upon the ex-parte motion of the Applicant/ Respondent in relation the funds of the Respondent/Applicant domiciled in the accounts stated in the following schedule:

“ACCOUNT NAME, FINANCIAL ACCOUNT INSTITUTIONS, TYPE OF ACCOUNT, 1. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered, (US Dollars) 0001852063 2. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Current) 0001852056 3. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Saving) 5002309624.

“Issued at Lagos, under the seal of this Honourable Court and by the hands of the Presiding Judge this 16th day of August 2023.”
