  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

A top solicitor from here in the UK pointed out on the BBC that whatever the police find during the searches will be used to rearrest and charge.

So if he's got anything dodgy in his residences then the police will arrest and charge him again. Obviously if it was me then I'd have got rid of any evidence asap, however I wasn't born as a prince who thinks they are super special and that they are untouchable.
