0h 6min, feb 26, 2026 y - MoD Epstein Investigation

Description:

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has launched a review into whether RAF bases were used by Jeffrey Epstein.

It is expected the review, first reported by the Telegraph, external, will look into records and emails, while Defence Secretary John Healey was said to have ordered officials to turn over every stone to establish whether the late sex offender landed his private jet at military sites when visiting the UK.

An MoD source said it would "ruthlessly pursue any information that can shed light on this scandal".

It comes after former Prime Minister Gordon Brown demanded a police investigation into whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor had used RAF bases to meet Epstein.

Brown said he had submitted a five-page dossier to several UK police forces – including the Met, Sussex and Thames Valley Police – providing new and additional information from Epstein-related documents published in the US.
