Police are expected to continue their searches at Royal Lodge in Windsor until Monday
The Metropolitan Police says it is contacting Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's protection officers, asking them to considerwhether "anything they saw or heard" while working for the former prince "may be relevant" to ongoing enquiries.
Separately, Thames Valley Police is continuing to search Andrew's former Windsor home, Royal Lodge, in connection with his arrest yesterday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
The BBC understands officers are expected to continue their search of Royal Lodgeover the weekend and into Monday.
There's been no sign of the former prince since his release from custody and return to Sandringham in Norfolk last night.
AsUK correspondent Daniel Sandford reports, we still don't know the specifics of why Andrew was arrested, but there's an assumption that it relates to the alleged sharing of documents within the Epstein files - between Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein himself.
At this stage, Andrew has only been arrested and released under investigation. He has not been charged.
He has previously denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein; he has not responded to the BBC's requests for comment on the specific allegations in relation to the release of millions of Epstein files in January.
Meanwhile, the BBC understands the government isconsidering introducing legislation to remove Mountbatten-Windsor from the line of royal succession.
