TURKISH officials have stepped up their campaign to prosecute the Duchess of York for her role in a documentary filmed undercover in their country.
Sarah Ferguson’s lawyers have been served by police with a request from Turkey for information from her. She has been accused of violating the privacy of disabled children after she appeared in a programme that exposed harsh conditions in state-run orphanages.
A police spokesman said: “A request for international legal assistance has been received. The legality of the request has been agreed.”
