London’s Metropolitan Police has launched an active investigation into allegations that Prince Andrew used taxpayer-funded security personnel to obtain compromising information on Virginia Giuffre, his accuser. The probe centers on a 2011 email in which Andrew allegedly provided Giuffre’s date of birth and U.S. Social Security number to a personal protection officer and asked them to check for a criminal record or other damaging material. This request reportedly came just before the publication of a photo showing Andrew with Giuffre when she was a minor, raising questions about whether the prince misused his resources and influence to target someone who had accused him of sexual misconduct. The police have confirmed they are “actively looking into” the matter.

The revelation has sparked outrage from political figures and the public alike, with calls for full transparency and accountability. At the same time, Andrew’s position has weakened further: he relinquished the title Duke of York and other royal honours amid these renewed allegations and the broader scandal surrounding his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. While there is no public evidence yet that the officer complied with Andrew’s directive, the investigation itself signals a rare instance of scrutiny directed at royal-protection resources being potentially exploited for personal agendas. The stakes are particularly high given Giuffre’s death earlier in the year, which has renewed pressure on authorities to leave no stone unturned.
