Britain’s police chief has said detectives will re-examine allegations against Prince Andrew due to the US civil suit filed against him for alleged sexual abuse.
Cressida Dick, the head of London’s Metropolitan Police, has revealed that the force would review the claims, after previously opting not to open an investigation.
Virginia Giuffre on Monday filed a claim in New York, alleging the late US financier Jeffrey Epstein regularly abused her and lent her out to “powerful men” for sex.

She claimed that Prince Andrew sexually abused her at the London home of the convicted sex offender’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell when she was under 18 over 20 years ago.
“As a result of what is going on, I’ve asked my team to have another look at the material. No one is above the law.
“We will of course again review our position,” she said.
Andrew — Queen Elizabeth II’s second son — has yet to publicly comment on the lawsuit but has previously strongly denied having sex with Giuffre or even meeting her.
