Lawyers representing 37 women who say they were raped or sexually assaulted by Mohammed Al-Fayed say he was a monster and sexual predator, whose behaviour was enabled by Harrods, the luxury London department store he owned until 2010.
Mohamed Al-Fayed was an Egyptian billionaire businessmen, who residence and main business interests were in the UK for decades. He owned Harrods, Fulham Football Club in West London and the Ritz Hotel in Paris. His son Dodi was in a romantic relationship with Diana, Princess of Wales when they died in a car crash in Paris. Mohamed Al-Fayed died in 2023 at the age of 94.
The current owners of Harrods say they’re appalled by the allegations and have put a settlement process in place for alleged victims.
A former manager of Fulham FC’s women’s team has said that female players weren’t allowed to be left alone with the billonaire when he owned the club, because it was well known that he liked ‘young, blonde girls’.

Talk about flogging a dead horse! Where's the evidence, or are the lawyers just looking for a big payday?🤑

@paulbunyan9436
Were they good girls on their way to sing in the church choir, then made a wrong turn and landed on a billionaire's boat with little on? 🤔

Of course everyone knew another rich old pervert with enough wealth to buy silence and political protection. Why are we acting surprised
@digglerdudeuk
The rich treating everyone else with utter contempt. Some things never change.
@magnacz
Me too started 18 years ago. So he would have been 76 at that time. Plenty of time to bring out your accusations when he was still alive. Getting money from the estate is a strange way to go about this.
@MiceDnP
What's the point in doing it now if the man is dead? Not justifying what he did if he really did it.

Meanwhile Bill Clinton is stil on the streets
@beautiful_one
If FFC knew never to leave girls alone with him, why did they not make any of it public and get him done then?? Why are they only coming out now saying they are shocking?? They knew exactly what their owner was like!! 🤬🤬
@mugenmugen9632
What a joke. The playbook has been consulted too much.
@4362mont
I'm appalled by this sort of behavior, but allegations are fine. A world without allegations is a world without justice.
@meiling7437
37 women 20 years later always the case
