LONDON (AP) — The U.K. government is set on Wednesday to release confidential papers related to the former Prince Andrew’s appointment as trade envoy, just months after lawmakers accused the king’s brother of putting his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein ahead of the nation.
Lawmakers approved a motion in February demanding publication of the documents after the one-time prince, now known simply as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was arrested on charges related to allegations that he shared government reports with Epstein while he was trade envoy.
