United Kingdom police have arrested King Charles’ younger brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, on suspicion of misconduct in public office over his links to Jeffrey Epstein.
Earlier reports said six unmarked police cars and about eight plain-clothed officers arrived at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate in eastern England on Thursday.
Thames Valley Police said earlier this month that officers were assessing allegations that Mountbatten-Windsor passed confidential government documents to the late sex offender, based on files recently released by the U.S. government.

Mountbatten-Windsor, the second son of the late Queen Elizabeth, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein and said he regrets their friendship. He has not responded to requests for comment since the latest document release.
Thames Valley Police said it had no immediate further comment.
