Britain’s Prince Harry, along with his wife Meghan, moved to the USA around two years back. He is granted permission by a British High Court Judge to challenge the UK government over security decisions.
The decision which was made by the Executive Committee in 2020 was about the protection of Royalty and Public Figures. This decision was made on behalf of the Home Office, the ministry which is responsible for policing, immigration, and security.
Prince Harry challenged the UK government’s decision about the cease police protection while he is Britain. He is challenging the decision after he was told that he would no longer be given the same degree of personal protective security while he visits.
Although Prince Harry wins the bid to challenge the UK government’s decision, a judicial review is to be done to scrutinize the legitimacy of a public’s body decision.
On Friday, a judgment was passed by the High Court granting permission to a part of Harry’s claims for a judicial review.
The permission involves several other grounds, which Harry’s legal team will have to abide by. Mr. Justice Swift stated – ‘The application is allowed in part and refused in part.’
There has been no official comment from Harry’s lawyers as they were not available. The Home Office hasn’t commented on the same yet.
Prince Harry’s legal team argued earlier this month in court, that the royal family should not involve in the UK government’s decision of not allowing Harry legal protection while he is in Britain.
