British police have asked the government not to release parts of correspondence between the ambassador to the US, Peter Mandelson, and the prime minister's chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney, about the Epstein case, the Metropolitan Police Service said.
On February 8, McSweeney resigned following the scandal surrounding the appointment of Mandelson, a friend of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, as ambassador to the United States. After that, more rumors circulated in the British press about the possible inevitable change of the Prime Minister who confirmed Mandelson's appointment.
However, Prime Minister Keir Starmer managed to secure the support of his party and stay in office. "An investigation into the alleged abuse of public official authority is ongoing, and it is important that due process is followed to ensure that our criminal investigation and any potential prosecution are not compromised," European publication Politico quoted the department as saying.
The decision regarding the documents to be published "will continue with the decision of the government and the parliament".
