Judge says search warrants used to seize property from former Prince Andrew were unlawful

The High Court ruled that search warrants used by Thames Valley Police to seize property from Prince Andrew were unlawful. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor successfully challenged the raids in court. Previously, police questioned him for eleven hours before releasing him under investigation. This specific legal status meant he was neither charged nor exonerated at that time. The court's decision marks a legal victory for the former prince regarding the legality of the police search warrants used during the raids.
