Jeffrey Epstein made $75,000 (£55,000) of payments to accounts connected to Lord Mandelson, bank statements released by the US Department of Justice suggest.

Between 2003 and 2004, Epstein appears to have sent three separate $25,000 payments referencing Lord Mandelson.
...
Lord Mandelson said he had no record or recollection of receiving the sums and did not know whether the documents were authentic.
...
Images of the former UK ambassador to the US in his underwear have also been uncovered in the latest tranche of Epstein files.

In a redacted pictures, he is seen standing next to a female, whose face is not visible.
