Police continued on Friday to search the former home of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, a day after he was arrested and held in custody for the best part of 11 hours on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to his friendship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on Thursday morning and released later that evening. Mountbatten-Windsor has faced intense scrutiny of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Photos showed Mountbatten-Windsor as he was leaving the police station.
