In Great Britain, the conflict surrounding former Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has reached a new stage. On February 19, police announced the arrest of a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of "misconduct in public office." Search operations are currently underway at locations in Burkshire and Norfolk. He is currently under police custody.
It is noteworthy that law enforcement agencies did not disclose the name of the person who was officially arrested. Based on national rules, they explained that "the name will not be mentioned" and emphasized that the case is in the "active investigation" stage and that caution should be exercised when disseminating information. However, due to public interest, some media outlets are linking this incident specifically to Andrew.
This event, of course, did not arise out of nowhere. Andrew's name has been mentioned for several years amid the controversy surrounding the late financier Jeffrey Epstein. It is noted that after the documents and materials published by the US, some accusations were brought to the agenda again, and the police said that they would announce the news of the investigation at the appointed time due to the high "public interest."
According to sources, Andrew was stripped of his titles last year due to these connections. Today's arrest could be a severe blow not only to his personal image but also to the general atmosphere surrounding the monarchy - because this case has now begun to be viewed in the media not as a "simple conflict," but as a "legal process."
In this regard, it is noted that UK Prime Minister Kir Starmer made a statement stating that "no one is above the law" and said that it is necessary to cooperate with investigative bodies in the USA. The investigation is ongoing.
In short: in this story, it's not the "noise" that decides, but the facts. Now everything depends on the facts and the results of the investigation - and this time it may be more difficult to "skip" with PR.
