Prince Harry 'Paki' video was stolen from his laptop computer: Army officer

London, Jan 18 (ANI): An Army officer, who trained with Prince Harry at the Sandhurst military academy, has told military investigators that he believes the video in which the royal refers to a colleague as 'Paki' was stolen from his laptop computer.

The officer, believed to be a member of the Household Cavalry - the same regiment as Prince Harry - told the special investigation branch (SIB) of the Royal Military Police that a copy of the video could have been downloaded from his laptop computer, reports the Telegraph.

He told the military police that many soldiers have had access to his computer in the three years since the video was made.

SIB is said to be trying to establish whether the video which was sold to a tabloid newspaper constitutes theft.

General Sir Richard Dannatt, the head of the Army, was 'disappointed and extremely cross' at Harry's use of the racist term.

A senior government official also added that the use of the term 'Paki' by the prince had done 'immense damage' to the Army's claim that it has a zero-tolerance policy on racism. (ANI)
