'What are they hiding?'

Lawyer puts pressure on Trump regime as swathes of pages are blanked out

- MIKEY SMITH

VICTIMS voiced fury after Donald Trump's administration released just 1% of the Jeffrey Epstein files before a legal deadline.

They hit out hours after Friday's release of photos and documents relating to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's paedophile friend.

The information included transcripts, images and video clips held by the FBI and Justice Department - but hundreds of pages were blacked out.

Gloria Allred, a lawyer representing 20 Epstein victims, said: "What are they hiding? What is in there that perhaps some powerful people would not like revealed? "Survivors are fighting to have the release of all the files [because] they want accountability.

"If there are rich, powerful, famous men who engaged in or assisted in or conspired to sex traffic underage girls, they want to know who those people are." The files included photos of late financier Epstein with Andrew, ex-President Bill Clinton and singers Mick Jagger and Michael Jackson. Inclusion in the files does not indicate knowledge of or shared guilt in Epstein's crimes. Andrew has strongly denied any wrongdoing.

Epstein is seen with dozens of young women - and in one image poses with his shirt off, near an unidentified child.

And there were hundreds of murky images of his homes, as well as unidentified women in varied states of undress, as well as a massage room.
