The correspondence has been released by the US Department of Justice

Newly released documents from the US Department of Justice reveal Ghislaine Maxwell attempted to arrange for "intelligent, pretty and fun" women "from good families" to meet a friend she referred to as "Andrew" during a 2002 trip to Peru.

The correspondence, forming part of approximately 8,000 files published on Monday evening — the largest batch released to date — shows Maxwell coordinating arrangements for someone stored in her contacts as "The Invisible Man."


Although the individual is not named in the documents, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor undertook a six-day official visit to Peru in March 2002, commemorating the golden jubilee of his mother's reign.

The documents do not allege any criminal wrongdoing in connection with the trip.

In her message to Juanesteban Ganoza dated March 3, 2002, Maxwell wrote: "I just gave Andrew your telephone no he can ride but it is not his favourite sport some two-legged sightseeing (read intelligent pretty fun and from good families) and he will be very happy."

She continued: "I know I can rely on you to show him a wonderful time and that you will only introduce him to friends that you can trust and rely on to be friendly and discreet and fun he does not want to read about any trip in the papers [detailing] whom or what he saw."

Maxwell informed Ganoza to anticipate a call from "a very English-sounding gentleman."

Prior to Maxwell's email, The Invisible Man had responded enthusiastically to the proposed Peruvian itinerary.

On February 28, 2002, he wrote: "I am overwhelmed at the kindness and generosity of the offers that are being made for me. I would love to do them all but fear that there would not be enough time!"

Regarding female companionship, he added: "As for girls well I leave that entirely to you and Juan Estoban!"

Ganoza subsequently replied, asking about the visitor's age, expressing doubt about finding suitable matches locally but indicating willingness to try.

There is no implication that any illegal activity took place during the trip.

The Invisible Man communicated using two email addresses: aace@dial.pipex.com and abx17@dial.pipex.com.

The first of these appears in Jeffrey Epstein's notorious contacts book under an entry labelled "Duke of York" — a title Andrew relinquished in October.

Further correspondence from The Invisible Man makes reference to Balmoral, the Scottish estate belonging to the Royal Family.

Additional emails allude to a recent departure from the Royal Navy. In one message dated August 18, he described losing his valet, who had served him since childhood, and leaving the RN, stating his "whole life is in turmoil."

Andrew departed the Royal Navy in July 2001 following 22 years of service.
