Police are investigating after a vandal graffitied the words 'paedo home' on the wall outside the Queen's official Scottish residence.

The wall at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh was spray-painted on January 16, the Mirror reported.

The words "burn Tory scum" were also written on the same brick wall in a similar style.

The graffiti follows a sex abuse case against Prince Andrew claiming that he had sexually assaulted Virginia Roberts, now Giuffre when she was 17 years old.
