Federal prosecutors in New York have formally requested testimony, through the United Kingdom, from Prince Andrew, as part of the criminal investigation into the alleged co-conspirators of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, two officials familiar with the matter told ABC News.
The U.K. Home Office typically does not confirm or deny the existence of a Mutual Legal Assistance request, except where disclosure is necessary to obtain the cooperation of the witness, according to the British manual for such matters. "The Southern District of New York and the FBI have contacted Prince Andrew's attorneys and requested to interview Prince Andrew, and to date Prince Andrew has provided zero cooperation," Berman told reporters on January 27.
"Any pursuit of an application for mutual legal assistance would be disappointing, since the Duke of York is not a target of the DOJ investigation and has recently repeated his willingness to provide a witness statement. It is hoped that this third offer has not been the cause of the most recent leak about the Duke of York," the statement added.
