We don’t know who manages HRH Andrew’s pr of “dept of sensible decisions” but obviously they need to get off the sauce.
Yes it’s the Daily Mail reporting but essentially the information is correct
Prince Andrew ‘recruits extradition lawyer once used by Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet’ as the FBI tries to interview him over his links to Jeffrey Epstein
- Claire Montgomery QC is a top extradition lawyer at London’s Matrix Chambers
- Among her list of clients are Augusto Pinochet, the former dictator of Chile
- Pinochet was indicted by Spain in 1998 and arrested in London while undergoing minor surgery
In 1998 Mrs Montgomery represented the dictator in his case before the House of Lords -then the highest court in the country – in a hard-fought 16-month-long legal battle.
She also represented the former Prime Minister of Thailand after he was ousted in a military coup in 2011; and Vijay Mallya, who India seeks to extradite from the UK to face financial crime charges.
Mrs Montgomery charges fees up to £1,000 per hour, the Telegraph newspaper reported.
The FBI, US prosecutors and lawyers for Epstein’s victims want to speak to Andrew as part of investigations into the disgraced financier’s sex trafficking ring.
Ms Roberts, now known by her married name Giuffre, claims she was trafficked to London and coerced into having sex with the Prince on three occasions in London, New York and the US Virgin Islands.
The Duke has categorically and repeatedly denied her claims.
Last month, US attorney Geoffrey Berman said prosecutors and the FBI had contacted the Duke’s representatives but had received no reply.
