- In BBC Newsnight documents, it is stated that the person was not found to have been involved in the abuse, and that the abuse was not confirmed.

Pizza Express reportedly filed a complaint by Andrew Muntbatten-Windsor over what it said was the abuse it claimed took place in Woking (Surrey) on a day in which a figure it had described as being involved in the alleged abuse, according to Jeffrey Epstein. The BBC Newsnight report says the letter was sent to the investigation, which was sent by BBC.
According to the BBC, the complaint involved a dispute over whether the abuse was true, and that the person was not found to have been involved in the abuse. The documents also state that the complaint was not found to have been confirmed, and that the person was not found to have been involved in the abuse.
BBC Newsnight reports that the investigation found evidence that the abuse took place in Pizza Express in Woking in 2001. The report says a file was created about the alleged abuse, but that no charges were brought against the person.
In 2019, Andrew Muntbatten-Windsor filed a complaint with Newsnight, claiming that the day he said he had been at Pizza Express in Woking was “4pm or 5pm in the afternoon,” and the matter was resolved later. BBC material also states that the time period did not overlap with the time the person claimed the abuse took place.
BBC reports that one of the documents for the complaint was a letter sent to the Metropolitan police. The police said that it would not “neither confirm nor deny” information, while referring to the “national security” position. A Met spokesperson said that the allegations were not supported and that the matter was being investigated.
According to the BBC, Met published a statement about “identifying and contacting” the individuals involved, and “consider carefully” whether the allegations were criminally relevant. Sam Muntbatten-Windsor, who is mentioned in the material, later said that the time was not the same.
The material also states that Virginia Giuffre, who says she was abused by Epstein, claimed that on 10 March 2001, she was abused by Andrew Muntbatten-Windsor in London at the same time that Ghislaine Maxwell was in the building. BBC Newsnight says it has new information from the “Epstein files” that Andrew Muntbatten-Windsor was involved in misconduct in public office, which it says was based on the allegations.
