Buckingham Palace has refused to return the body of an Ethiopian prince who was buried at Windsor Castle in the 19th century. 

A descendant of Prince Alemayehu – an orphan who was adored and supported financially by Queen Victoria and died at the age of 18 – has demanded that his remains be returned to Ethiopia.

But Buckingham Palace has maintained that removing the body would affect others buried in the catacombs of St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle.
