Prince Andrew has allegedly been named in secret new evidence detailing further allegations against his paedophile former friend Jeffrey Epstein.
A US judge will decide within the next six weeks whether to unseal more than 3,000 pages of new evidence about alleged crimes by the billionaire financier.
Hundreds of people are thought to be named in the files including the Duke of York as well as other well-known politicians and business figures, it has been claimed.

All of those named in the files, which include statements from 29 people, will be formally told before January so they can respond, reported the Daily Telegraph.
The evidence is allegedly linked to a defamation lawsuit by Epstein victim Virginia Roberts, now Virginia Giuffre, against his alleged co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell.
Andrew denied in an interview on BBC Newsnight on Saturday that he slept with Miss Roberts, on three separate occasions, twice while she was underage under US law.
He also said his relationship with Epstein had some ‘seriously beneficial outcomes’, giving him the chance to meet people and prepare for a future role as a trade envoy.
The new evidence is said to be linked to a defamation lawsuit filed in 2015 by Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre (right), pictured aged 17 with Prince Andrew in London in March 2001
Andrew said one alleged encounter with Ms Giuffre in 2001 did not happen as he spent the day with his daughter, Princess Beatrice, taking her to Pizza Express in Woking for a party.
The same alleged sexual liaison, which the American said began with the duke sweating heavily as they danced at London nightclub Tramp, was claimed to have been factually wrong as Andrew said he had a medical condition at the time which meant he did not sweat.
The Duke has been dealt a major blow this week after a sponsor of his flagship business project said it was not renewing support – as calls continued for him to make a statement about Epstein.
Andrew is facing the embarrassing prospect of charities and institutions he is associated with distancing themselves, as lawyers for the convicted sex offender’s victims urged him to tell US authorities what he knows.
The duke was caught up in further controversy when a newspaper columnist claimed Andrew used a racially-offensive word during a Buckingham Palace meeting in 2012.
The Queen and other senior royals are said to ‘back and believe’ Andrew’s defence of himself in the BBC interview ‘100 per cent’, sources told the Evening Standard.
One alleged Epstein victim gave an emotional account of her ordeal as she launched a civil lawsuit against the sex offender’s estate and made a direct appeal to the duke after her lawyer, Gloria Allred, called on him to make a statement.
The 31-year-old – known only as Jane Doe 15 – said:
‘I would also like to say I agree with Gloria that Prince Andrew, and any others that are close to Epstein, should come forward and give a statement under oath on what information they have.’
The fall-out from Andrew’s Newsnight appearance has already begun, with the Outward Bound Trust, which the Duke supports as patron, saying it will hold a board meeting in the next few days when members will discuss issues raised by Saturday’s interview.
The student jury at Huddersfield University, where Andrew is chancellor, passed a motion to lobby the duke to resign, with a full statement expected from the Students’ Union today.
KPMG’s sponsorship contract with Andrew’s Pitch@Palace, a mentoring scheme for tech start-ups and entrepreneurs, expired at the end of October and will not be renewed.
Pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca told the Daily Telegraph it is also reviewing its future with the mentoring scheme.
Andrew’s appearance on Newsnight to explain his friendship with the convicted sex offender and deny allegations of having sex with an under-age teenager has been widely condemned, but the duke is said to being standing by his decision to put his side of the story.
WHERE IS PRINCE ANDREW NOW LEFT LEGALLY?
Police interview for Andrew?
Scotland Yard has ruled out any inquiry in the UK, but the FBI and the French authorities are conducting investigations.
It is possible for the FBI or French police to issue a ‘letter of request’ direct to Scotland Yard for assistance in taking a statement from the royal.
They could request that an interview takes place with either British detectives or French or American investigators if they travelled to the UK to meet him.
The FBI could also issue a request for mutual legal assistance via the Home Office. But any statement or interview would only be voluntary and it is not possible to force a potential suspect or witness to co-operate without a warrant for their arrest. Andrew cannot be subpoenaed to give testimony because he lives outside the jurisdiction of US courts.
Immunity from prosecution?
Last night Buckingham Palace confirmed the Duke of York is not immune from prosecution. The Queen has sovereign immunity from civil or criminal prosecutions, but this does not extend to all members of the Royal Family.
Anna Rothwell, of law firm Corker Binning, said yesterday those connected to Epstein were ‘vulnerable to extradition’ due to the ongoing FBI investigation.
Is extradition possible?
The FBI would first consider if there is enough evidence to charge him with an offence. A formal extradition request would be made. The Home Secretary would have to decide whether to certify the request before it would be sent to Westminster Magistrates Court to consider.
A judge would need to be satisfied that his conduct amounts to an extraditable offence by considering whether there was evidence of guilt and if extradition would breach human rights.
An order would still need to be signed off by the Home Secretary. Yesterday lawyers claimed an extradition request to the US would be hard to resist. Due to the European agreements we currently have in place, extradition to France would be a more straightforward process. 2)SEE: by Rebecca Camber, Daily Mail END
Prince Andrew is interviewed by Emily Maitlis on BBC’s Newsnight, broadcast on Saturday
US lawyer Spencer Kuvin, who represents a woman who claims she was a victim of Epstein, told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that Andrew should come forward to help the ongoing investigation into the disgraced American financier.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson was asked if he would encourage Andrew to co-operate with US authorities about his knowledge of the disgraced financier’s activities but he brushed the question off, during an election campaign event at the CBI annual conference, saying ‘nice try there’.
It also emerged yesterday that Miss Roberts has given an interview to BBC’s Panorama.
It is understood that the 35-year-old reiterated her claims that she slept with Andrew when she was just 17 after being trafficked by Epstein.
The interview, which was filmed three weeks ago, is due to be broadcast in the coming weeks.
The duke’s interview on Saturday has been widely criticised, with commentators questioning his responses and condemning his unsympathetic tone and seeming lack of remorse over the friendship with Epstein, who killed himself in jail while facing sex trafficking charges.
The Evening Standard published on its front page the claim made by its columnist Rohan Silva that, while a Downing Street aide specialising in the tech economy, the duke made a racist remark.
He told the newspaper that, when he asked Andrew if the government department responsible for trade ‘could be doing a better job’, the duke replied:
‘Well, if you’ll pardon the expression, that really is the n***** in the woodpile.’
Sources have categorically denied that Andrew used the word. A Buckingham Palace spokesman declined to comment on the Telegraph’s report. END
JUST 16 PER CENT of people believe Andrew after Epstein interview
Just 16 per cent of Brits believe Prince Andrew was telling the truth during his disastrous BBC interview.
A survey by OnePoll reveals just how badly the broadcast has gone down with the general public.
Only 16 per cent believe his claim that he has no recollection of meeting Virginia Giuffre, then 17, whom he is alleged to have had sex with.
The same figure believes his ‘alibi’ that he was at Pizza Express in Woking when Virginia Roberts alleged the incident took place.
Just 17 per cent believe his claim that he cannot sweat due to a medical condition picked up during the Falklands War.
More than half (54 per cent) think his decision to do the interview had damaged the Royal Family’s reputation.
And almost two thirds (63 per cent) said they thought Prince Andrew had done victims of sexual abuse “a disservice” by describing Epstein’s offending as “unbecoming”.
Last night, in a press conference in Los Angeles, another victim of Epstein urged Prince Andrew to share information on his former friend, who was found hanged in a US jail in August.
More than half (58 per cent) of the 1,000 UK adults surveyed by OnePoll think Andrew should now volunteer himself to the FBI to be questioned as part of the investigation.
The poll also revealed 63 per cent said they felt sorry for the Queen after the 93-year-old following her son’s relationship with the convicted sex offender and his Newsnight interview. END

□ Ms Roberts has accused the Duke of York of having sex with her when she was 17
□ Today she agreed with Twitter posts saying Prince Andrew should be in prison
□ Prince Andrew attempted to repair his reputation in a BBC Newsnight interview
□ The move backfired and he was roundly criticised and mocked over the debacle

Virginia Roberts has said Ghislaine Maxwell should be arrested and that Prince Andrew belongs in jail – as she accuses the authorities of a cover up.
Ms Roberts, an alleged trafficking victim of paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, claims she had sex with the duke three times when she was 17, which he strenuously denies.
She alleges that after dancing with Andrew at Tramp nightclub, they later had sex at mews house in Belgravia, owned by the duke’s friend Ghislaine Maxwell, on March 10, 2001.
In a number of posts on her Twitter account today Ms Roberts agreed with other social media users suggesting the duo should face consequences from law enforcement.
Ms Roberts, now known as Mrs Guiffre, suggested that Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew should be in prison
She also suggested that people needed to keep putting pressure on the authorities to hold predators to account

In response to a post suggesting Prince Andrew should go to prison, she said: ‘Well said – keep putting pressure on the authorities to hold each and everyone who participated, enabled or knew & did nothing accountable.
‘No more charades, or games-time to start locking all the predators up!!!
‘They put us in chains not it’s their turn!’
In another post that suggested Ghislaine Maxwell be arrested, she said: ‘Amen to that!!!’
She also blasts claims the photo of her with Andrew’s arm around her lower back it doctored or fake.
In the picture of Ms Roberts – now known as Mrs Guiffre – shows Andrew with his arm around her waist at Ghislaine Maxwell’s house, who can be seen in the background of the image.
Ms Roberts said: ‘It does have a date stamp – on the back. There are so many ways I could poke holes in their ‘doctored photo’ but I don’t need to.
Virginia Roberts, appearing in an NBC interview, is set to appear on BBC Panorama on Monday next week
‘I know it’s real, the FBI knows its real, journos who’ve seen it know its real. Can’t wait to hear their next excuse.’
It comes just a week after Prince Andrew’s misguided attempt to repair his reputation and clarify his relationship with Epstein he was interviewed by the BBC’s Emily Maitlis on Newsnight.
It went so badly the Queen was forced to step in and effectively fire him from public duties and the duke stepped back from all of his 230 patronages.
Now Buckingham Palace is bracing itself for yet further scrutiny as Ms Roberts is being interviewed on BBC Panorama this week. It will be broadcast on Monday next week.
Yesterday the Duchess of York’s friends suggested Ms Roberts should face a TV ‘grilling’ similar to the one faced by Andrew.
A friend told The Telegraph: ‘She [Virginia Roberts] should be properly cross-examined and on all the evidence that doesn’t stack up.
‘She should be put on the rack. The BBC cannot drill him as they did, and just believe her, when there are lots of inconsistencies.’
In particular, the friend of the duchess said the BBC should ask Virginia Roberts – now Mrs Giuffre – how much she had been paid for the photograph showing the Duke with his arm around her at the home of Ghislaine Maxwell.
The intervention may not prove welcome due to the demand to put Ms Roberts – an alleged victim of a paedophile and sex offender – under an intense media grilling.
The Duke of York’s former wife Sarah Ferguson and daughter Princess Beatrice were among the key figures pressing him to go ahead with last weekend’s car crash interview, it has been claimed.
The Duchess of York had been keen to end the speculation about Andrew’s involvement with convicted paedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein ahead of Beatrice’s wedding to property developer Edo Mapelli Mozzi next year.
Fergie is also believed to have been convinced that if the public could see the Duke – or ‘my boy’, as she is said to call him – talking in his own words about the scandal, they would be convinced that he was telling the truth.
Andrew’s performance and its aftermath seem to
Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, pictured at Royal Ascot this year
have hit the Princess hard and she was tearful while hosting a party for her fiance’s 36th birthday at the exclusive Mayfair nightclub Annabel’s on Tuesday night.
In a misguided attempt to repair his reputation and clarify his relationship with Epstein he was interviewed by the BBC’s Emily Maitlis on Newsnight
One member of the Princess’s circle said that what should have been a celebration was a solemn and awkward affair. Prince Andrew stepped down from Royal duties the following day.
‘Beatrice was sombre and make-up-free for the birthday dinner,’ the source said.
‘She was probably worried that her mascara would run. She seemed quite tearful at times. In fact, Beatrice has been in tears every day since the interview went out.’
Princess Beatrice is due to marry her partner Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi next year but royal biographer Christopher Warwick said the scandal would probably mean her wedding will be a much smaller affair than that afforded to her sister.
Mr Warwick said: ‘I think – fairly or unfairly – it has cast a shadow over the York family but more broadly his stepping back from official duties has kind of lifted that shadow that was about to be cast over the whole royal family.’
During the BBC interview, Andrew denied claims he had sex with a 17-year-old girl, Virginia Roberts, but admitted he had ‘let the side down’ when he visited Epstein’s home in New York – two years after the billionaire financier’s conviction for soliciting a minor for prostitution.
The duke was also attacked for what was seen by many as a lack of remorse over the friendship with the disgraced financier, who took his own life in prison earlier this year while awaiting trial on sex trafficking and conspiracy charges.
