British authorities admitted to applying for the wrong statutory provision when obtaining search warrants for the residences of the former prince Andrew, a judge revealed on Thursday. Despite acknowledging this procedural error, the judge stated that the misconduct investigation against the king’s brother could persist.
The search, conducted in February at Andrew’s homes, was deemed unlawful due to the incorrect application for warrants. This ruling by the court highlighted the mistake while allowing the investigation into alleged misconduct to proceed without interruption.
Photographs from February showed police officers stationed at the Royal Lodge in Windsor, England. The court’s decision emphasizes the importance of following correct legal procedures in law enforcement activities.
