Prince Harry’s US visa files released, but with much blacked out

• Prince Harry's US visa application files have been partially unsealed following a Freedom of Information request by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank.
• The Heritage Foundation alleged that Harry concealed past drug use, detailed in his memoir Spare, which should have disqualified him from obtaining a visa.
• A US judge ordered the release of versions of the documents, citing public interest, but significant portions were blacked out to protect Harry's privacy.
• The redactions were justified by concerns that releasing the information could expose Harry to harm and harassment.
• The unsealed documents do not disclose what Harry declared on his visa application form. The documents released are supporting declarations and court transcripts, running to some 80 pages.
