Thames Valley Police assessing report Andrew 'shared confidential trade information with Epstein'
Andrew has previously denied any wrongdoing over his Epstein links but has not directly responded to the latest allegations
Police are assessing claims that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor shared confidential reports from his role as the UK's trade envoy with Jeffrey Epstein.
Emails released by the US Department of Justice earlier this month appear to show the former duke sharing reports of official visits to Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Singapore.
One email, dated November 2010, was forwarded by Andrew just five minutes after being sent by his then-special advisor, Amir Patel.
The former duke made the visits in his capacity as trade envoy in late 2010, conducting meetings and trade talks.
Additionally, on Christmas Eve 2010, Andrew looped Epstein in on a confidential brief on investment opportunities in the reconstruction of Helmand Province, Afghanistan.
Graham Smith, chief executive of anti-monarchy campaign group Republic, said he had reported the allegations to police.
In a post on X, he said: "I have now reported Andrew to the (Thames Valley Police) for suspected misconduct in public office and breach of official secrets in relation to these specific allegations.
"I cannot see any significant difference between these allegations and those against Peter Mandelson."
Andrew has previously denied any wrongdoing over his Epstein links but has not directly responded to the latest allegations.
Today, Thames Valley Police confirmed they were assessing the fresh allegations.
A Thames Valley Police spokesperson said: "We can confirm receipt of this report and are assessing the information in line with our established procedures."
