UK Examining Epstein's Use of Airports for Trafficking
Three regional forces review 87 Epstein-linked private flights to UK airports amid concerns of trafficking and visa irregularities, according to BBC and police statements.
- On Wednesday, three regional police forces said they were reviewing information about private flights linked to Jeffrey Epstein, including flights at Stansted, Luton, and Birmingham airports.
- Following the U.S. release of millions of documents, police reviews were prompted; the BBC reported last year that incomplete flight logs showed 87 Epstein-linked flights at UK airports.
- Records reviewed by Reuters reference Stansted Airport and state private flights are handled separately from terminal operations, with Border Force responsible for immigration checks.
- A national coordination group was set up to support local forces investigating Epstein's ties in Britain, while two other police forces examine Peter Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who deny wrongdoing.
- The revelations have already had a major impact in Britain, prompting scrutiny of high-profile ties while Border Force did not respond to requests about immigration checks.
