Prince Harry loses in court and demands the name of the responsible official. He had previously revoked his security status.
Prince Harry (39) suffered a bitter defeat in court on Wednesday, February 28th in a dispute with the British government. According to consistent media reports, he lost the case over the continuation of state security measures during his home visits. The younger son of King Charles III insisted on this. (75), although he voluntarily gave up the status of a working royal in the wake of Megxit.
Prince Harry’s team has since announced that they will appeal the decision. The British tabloid Daily Mail The detailed court documents on the London High Court ruling are now available. This shows, among other things, that Harry became clear in front of the judge and even lost his composure for a short time.
Prince Harry: “I would like to know this person’s name!”
Prince Harry is said to have openly demanded in the courtroom that the identity of the official who had the Interior Ministry downgrade his police protection be revealed. “I would like this person’s name!” Harry is said to have personally requested. His specific arguments for continuing security measures in Great Britain have now also become known through the publication of the court documents.
He complained that his visits continued to be unsafe, especially for his children Princess Lilibet (2) and Prince Archie (4). Nothing has changed just because he is no longer in the front row. He is still “a prince of the kingdom” and is, after all, fifth in line to the throne. Nevertheless, the court defended the Interior Ministry’s decision. All aspects were taken into account, so the withdrawal of the need for protection was also legal. It would be appropriate to limit police protection to those people who, because of their public role, would act in the interests of the state. However, that is no longer the case with Prince Harry.
