Washington: The push for transparency in the Jeffrey Epstein case has entered a new phase after US President Donald Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, hours after the House voted 427 to 1 in favour of releasing all unclassified records.
The law directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to now publish every unclassified document, communication and investigative file related to Epstein held by the Justice Department. The move comes after days of political scrutiny, including questions put to Trump during his White House meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Although, Trump has maintained he had no role in Epstein’s alleged crimes.
Here's a list of names included in the previously released documents:

Alongside public pressure, the expected release comes after thousands of pages of estate materials disclosed last week that referenced Trump, Steve Bannon and Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. ABC News reported that certain files may still remain sealed if tied to ongoing investigations or protected by executive privilege. Being named in the records does not indicate wrongdoing, as per reports.
