Activists from the British political campaign group Everyone Hates Elon hung a photo of the ex-prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor at the Louvre museum in Paris on Sunday, The Guardian reported.
In the picture, Mountbatten-Windsor appeared in the backseat of a Range Rover being driven after his arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office, a case that involves disgraced sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Right below the photo frame, the activists affixed a card that read: “He’s Sweating Now” with 2026 below.
King Charles's younger brother was photographed by Reuters photographer Phil Noble after being arrested on Thursday at the Sandringham estate. During the time of arrest, Mountbatten-Windsor spent 11 hours in police custody at Aylsham police station in Norfolk, The Guardian reported.
The former Duke of York is currently under investigation for allegedly sending confidential government information to Epstein while the former royal was working as the UK's Special Representative for International Trade and Investment between 2001 and 2011, according to The Guardian.
Mountbatten-Windsor couldn't be reached for comment, but has in the past denied any wrongdoing related to Epstein and said he regrets their friendship, Reuters reported.
Starmer's govt. to release documents relating Prince Andrew to Epstein
According to Reuters, the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's government agreed on Tuesday to release documents relating to the appointment of King Charles's brother as a trade envoy amid widening scrutiny over his ties to Epstein.
The ex-prince was the first member of the British royal family to be arrested in more than three centuries, Reuters noted.
The Everyone Hates Elon activist group targets “billionaires and their politician mates” through provocative acts, the group stated.
The group has previously engaged in protest acts such as hanging posters with pictures of Manchester United footballers, saying “immigration has done more for this city than billionaire tax dodgers ever have.”
The action was made after Manchester United's largest single shareholder, Jim Ratcliffe, commented about the UK being “colonized” by immigrants.
