US lawyer takes legal action in Prince Andrew sex claim case

The American lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, who is accused of having sex with an under-age girl in the case that also involves Prince Andrew, has begun legal action to clear his name.

The Duke of York and Mr Dershowitz were named in US court papers relating to the handling of a case against financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Both men strenuously deny the allegations.
