ANDREW Mountbatten-Windsor should come clean to the US Congress over the Jeffrey Epstein case, Sir Keir Starmer says.
Sir Kier said “anybody who has got relevant information in relation to these kind of cases should give evidence to those that need it”.
“It is highly unusual for the Prime Minister to comment on potential legal matters relating to members of the royal family.”
And his comments pile more pressure on Andrew who has failed to respond to requests from US politicians to come clean and explain his links to the late paedophile.
My general position is if you have relevant information you should be prepared to share it.
Sir Keir Starmer
Asked about Andrew and Congress by The Sun on Sunday during a trip to the G20 in South Africa, the PM said: “I don’t comment on this particular case.
“But a general principle I’ve held for a very long time is that anybody who has got relevant information in relation to these kind of cases should give that evidence to those that need it.

“That would be my general position on this.”
‘Hiding from us’
Pressed on whether Andrew should follow this advice, the PM added: “In the end that will be a decision for him.
“But my general position is if you have relevant information you should be prepared to share it.”
US Congressman Suhas Subramanyam – one of 16 Democrats who signed the letter asking Andrew to testify – said the former prince “has been hiding from us”.
