Mohamed al-Fayed’s son has said the multiple allegations of sexual abuse made against his late father have “thrown into question the loving memory I had of him”. The former Harrods owner has been accused of multiple rapes and sexual assaults by dozens of women, who claimed he preyed on young women working at the company.

Harrods apologized to its employees on Thursday over the late owner Mohamed Al Fayed's alleged sexual abuse. The London department store was bought by Al Fayed, an Egypt-born businessman, in the mid-1980s.

The managing director of Harrods says the London department store is “deeply sorry” for failing employees who say they were sexually assaulted by late owner Mohamed Al Fayed.

The late former owner of London's luxury department store Harrods has been accused of sexually assaulting dozens of women, including several Americans.

Ongoing enquiries into allegations of sexual abuse against former Harrods chairman Mohamed Al Fayed have unearthed new testimony linked to Fulham FC. Al Fayed, who died aged 94 in August 2023, owned the club between 1997 and 2013.

Around 60 women have now come forward to allege they were sexually abused by former Harrods owner Mohamed Al-Fayed, lawyers representing them said on Friday.

Ward is asking current and former Harrods colleagues to report further incidents of sexual abuse as the store conducts an independent review of multiple allegations against the late Mohamed Al Fayed.

There is “credible evidence of abuse” at Fulham under the ownership of Mohamed Al-Fayed, according to lawyers representing women who allege rape and sexual abuse while working at his famous department store,
