British police were seen arriving at Andrew\u2019s residence in Sandringham on Thursday, according to a report from the BBC and the Daily Telegraph, CNBC reported.<\/p>\n
Thames Valley Police said in a statement that they had arrested a man, who they did not name, in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office and are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFollowing a thorough assessment, we have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office,\u201d Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright said in the police statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is important that we protect the integrity and objectivity of our investigation as we work with our partners to investigate this alleged offence,\u201d he said, adding: \u201cWe understand the significant public interest in this case, and we will provide updates at the appropriate time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Norfolk Constabulary told CNBC in a statement that it was supporting the Thames Valley Police investigation.<\/p>\n
Andrew, the younger brother of King Charles and the second son of the late Queen Elizabeth, had come under scrutiny due to his relationship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n
Andrew was also forced to move out of his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge, to a smaller residence on King Charles\u2019 Sandringham Estate. The King has cut Andrew\u2019s annual personal allowance and security funding, but is covering the cost of his new accommodation.<\/p>\n
