As the Royals famously never carry cash, he probably thought it was the way commoners deal with money transactions.

LONDON — Prince Charles’ office has denied there was any wrongdoing in the heir to the British throne accepting bags full of cash as charity donations from a Qatari politician.

The Sunday Times said the prince was given a total of 3 million euros ($3.2 million) by Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, the former prime minister of Qatar. It said the money was handed over to Charles at private meetings between 2011 and 2015 — on one occasion in a suitcase, and on another in shopping bags from London’s Fortnum & Mason department store.

No inquiry into €3m cash donations to Prince Charles’s charity

The charity regulator said that it had no plans for any intervention after reports of the donations made by a former Qatari prime minister

A Charity Commission spokesperson said: “We have assessed the information provided by the charity and have determined there is no further regulatory role for the commission.” The commission added that it had “no concerns” about the governance of the prince’s charity and that the trustees had submitted information, via a serious incident report, which had given “sufficient assurance” that due diligence had taken place.
