The allegations “had not been reported to Thames Valley Police by either the lawyer or their client.”
That same month, several British police forces confirmed they were examining the logs of Epstein’s private jet, nicknamed the “Lolita Express,” amid concerns the convicted sex offender may have trafficked women through U.K. airports.
TIME has approached the relevant police forces for updates on these investigations.
Unrelated to the sexual abuse allegations, separate lines of enquiry stemming from the Epstein files resulted in former U.K. ambassador to the U.S. Peter Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The arrests took place days apart in late February.
Both were released under investigation and have previously vehemently denied any wrongdoing.
Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has faced vigorous questioning—and calls to resign—over his handling of Mandelson’s appointment.
