UK police have recently made a significant update regarding human trafficking claims that have emerged from the Epstein files, which were released by the US Department of Justice in December 2025. Surrey Police has requested that anyone with information related to these allegations come forward, particularly those concerning reported incidents of human trafficking and sexual assault of a minor in Virginia Water, Surrey, between 1994 and 1996.

According to their statement, Surrey Police, after reviewing their records with the information available, found no prior reports related to these allegations, which raises concerns about the historical handling of such serious claims. The police emphasized their commitment to thoroughly investigate all reports of child and sexual abuse, underlining the importance of public assistance in uncovering the truth behind these allegations. They have encouraged individuals with any knowledge of the incidents to report this information through their online platforms or the police non-emergency number, 101.

This announcement reflects ongoing public and law enforcement interest in the Epstein case, particularly regarding the wider implications of human trafficking and the safety of minors. As more details unfold, the effectiveness of the police response and the potential for uncovering additional victims or evidence will be critical in addressing historical abuse and ensuring justice for those affected by such crimes.
