American investigators probing Prince Andrew’s paedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein have formally requested the Duke of York be handed over to give evidence.
The U.S. Department of Justice made a formal ‘’Mutual Legal Assistance’’ (MLA) request to the Home Office bypassing Buckingham Palace.
The MLA allows cooperation between the U.S. and the U.K. when evidence needs to be gathered in a prosecution or investigation of criminal offences.
If approved by the Home Office, the FBI could ask Andrew, 60, to be compelled to go to a British court to give evidence under oath as a witness if he refused to cooperate.
It would be up to the judge in the U.K. to decide if the hearing was in open court.
If U.S. prosecutors wanted to extradite Andrew, they would have to obtain an arrest warrant or a grand jury indictment to make a request to the U.K.
