Prince Harry loses legal battle over UK police protection

Published: 28 February 2024 at 13:23

Prince Harry has lost a legal challenge against the UK government\'s decision to revoke his automatic high-level police protection while visiting. The retired High Court judge ruled the change in security status was not unlawful or irrational, and there was no procedural unfairness. Prince Harry plans to appeal the judgment, seeking justice from the Court of Appeal without looking for preferential treatment. The decision marks a blow for the Duke of Sussex, raising questions about security for future family visits.
