Tomorrow's front page: The US has officially demanded Britain hand over Prince Andrew to be questioned about paedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein
THE US has officially demanded Britain hand over Prince Andrew to be quizzed over his links to billionaire paedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein.
It has by-passed Buckingham Palace - instead filing a “mutual legal assistance” request to the Home Office., who “categorically denies” any wrongdoing, could now be forced to appear in a UK court as a witness within months.'DIPLOMATIC NIGHTMARE'And sources said it was unlikely Andrew would be aware of the MLA request at this stage because countries are legally obliged to keep them secret.
But sources say angry American investigators - frustrated at what they see as a lack of cooperation from the Queen’s son to date - have the power to pursue an explosive second route. They are rarely used in civil matters, but if they are, any request has to be filed to the Foreign Office instead. During the interview, Andrew said he would help the US investigation if his “legal advice was to do so”.
