Judge Orders Release of Prince Harry's Visa Records

A U.S. federal judge has mandated the release of Prince Harry's visa records by March 18, 2025, following a lawsuit by the Heritage Foundation against the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The conservative think tank alleges Harry may have misrepresented his drug use on his visa application, referencing his admissions in his memoir 'Spare' and Netflix documentary. Judge Carl Nichols approved DHS's redactions, balancing transparency with privacy, while highlighting the public interest in the case. Despite initial denial of the Freedom of Information request, DHS agreed to release redacted documents, stirring debates on privacy, immigration policy, and potential preferential treatment for public figures. Former President Donald Trump stated he would not seek Harry's deportation, citing personal reasons related to Harry's relationship with Meghan Markle. As the deadline nears, this case continues to garner significant public and legal scrutiny.
