Prince Andrew Reported To British Police, Accused of Using False Name to Register Shady Companies
Another week, another Prince Andrew scandal.
Sounds unbelievable, but the echoes of his latest espionage scandal have not even died out, and a new concern about the Duke of York has hit the headlines of newspapers in the UK and around the world.
It arises now that Andrew has been reported to police after using the name ‘Inverness’ to register companies in Britain.
The anti-monarchy campaign group Republic accuses the Duke of ‘filing false information’.
It was revealed back in 2019 that Andrew secretly set up a private investment fund under the name ‘Andrew Inverness’ to ‘channel deals brokered at Buckingham Palace’.
Now, he is the owner of four linked companies registered at Companies House under this name.
Andrew is described on official documents as a “consultant” to these companies.
The Telegraph reported:
“On Monday, Graham Smith, the Republic chief executive, filed a complaint to the Metropolitan Police about the registration of Naples Gold Ltd, one of those companies. He alleged that the name used by the Duke, ‘Andrew Inverness’, was false, and that he had erroneously listed a London address as his residential address.
Mr. Smith said: ‘The royals appear to believe they can act with impunity, an impression given weight by the lack of police action on serious allegations of corruption and sexual offences. The apparent filing of false information with Companies House may seem trivial, but the UK faces serious issues of fraud committed in this way. While no such fraud is alleged here, surely Andrew must be held to the highest standards’.”
Andrew received the title of Earl of Inverness by the late Queen Elizabeth back when he married Sarah Ferguson in 1986. But concerns have been raised that, when choosing to register businesses under the name ‘Andrew Inverness’, he would be trying to avoid scrutiny.
A company called Urramoor Ltd was set up in February 2013, a year and a half after Andrew was stripped of his UK trade envoy role over his continued association with late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
“There is almost no detail in the public domain about Urramoor, and it does not have a website. But a US-South African investment firm that had a tie-up with the company described it as ‘the private investment office of HRH Duke of York’.
In a separate development, an application was made last week to strike Urramoor Ltd off the register. The application was made days after the company’s latest accounts were published, revealing that it was finally solvent after securing almost £210,000 in funding from an anonymous source the previous year.”
Documents show that ‘HRH Andrew Inverness’ maintains control of the company.
“Mr. Smith said that as such ‘there must surely be a public interest in pursuing the matter when it’s such a high-profile figure allegedly doing it. We expect the police to pursue this matter without fear or favor – something they seem to struggle with when it comes to the royals’.”
