"Prince Andrew Faces New Scrutiny Amid Epstein Revelations and Met Police Decision"

The Metropolitan Police have stated they are not currently investigating Prince Andrew following the unsealing of US court documents that accuse him of groping a woman at Jeffrey Epstein's house, an allegation he has denied. The documents are part of a case against Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence for aiding Epstein's abuse of girls. The police have said they will review "new and relevant" information if it emerges. High-profile figures such as former US presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump are also named in the documents, but with no alleged wrongdoing. Prince Andrew has previously settled a civil sex assault claim and stepped back from royal duties in 2019 due to the Epstein scandal.
