Prince Andrew faces police scrutiny after claims he used a fake name to register a company, raising questions about his business dealings.
London: So, Prince Andrew is in a bit of hot water. He’s been reported to the police for allegedly using a fake name to set up a company. Can you believe it?
Apparently, he filed some documents under the name Andrew Inverness. Sounds a bit fishy, right? This was all linked to a company called Naples Gold Limited, which stopped trading back in 2021.
Graham Smith, who runs an anti-monarchy group called Republic, is the one who reported him. He claims Andrew used this pseudonym to register the company, which is actually against the law.
It’s unclear why he would use a fake name, but it’s raised some eyebrows. Smith mentioned that the royals seem to think they can do whatever they want without consequences, especially with serious allegations floating around.
He pointed out that while this might seem like a small issue, it’s part of a bigger problem with fraud in the UK. If anyone should be held to a higher standard, it’s definitely someone like Andrew.
Interestingly, there have been whispers about him using the name Andrew Inverness for years, but nothing was ever confirmed until now.
The Met Police said they’re looking into the report but haven’t started a full investigation yet. They just received the report and are figuring out what to do next.
It’s also been reported that this alias has been used to register four different companies. Plus, he was involved with another company that’s now been shut down.
And just when you think it couldn’t get weirder, it turns out he was friends with a guy who’s been linked to espionage. Talk about a tangled web!
