Chinese Businessman H6 Linked to Duke of York Banned from UK Since July 2023 on National Security Grounds
Dec 13, 2024, 12:15 PM
A Chinese businessman, referred to as H6, who was described as a 'close confidant' of Prince Andrew, has lost an appeal to enter the UK due to national security concerns. The tribunal's decision, upheld by a British court, cited H6's alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party and the United Front Work Department as reasons for the ban. H6 was reportedly authorized by Prince Andrew to seek investors in China and was even invited to the Duke's birthday party, raising questions about the royal's judgment and the extent of foreign influence in his inner circle. The case has sparked renewed scrutiny of Prince Andrew, with officials expressing concern over his connections to individuals deemed security risks. Following the court ruling, Prince Andrew's office stated that he has ceased all contact with H6 after receiving advice from the government regarding these concerns.
