Al Fayed was a ‘monster’, says alleged victims’ legal team
Barristers representing the alleged victims of Mohamed Al Fayed have said the case “combines some of the most horrific elements of the cases involving Jimmy Savile, Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein”.
The late Harrods’ owner was described as a “monster” by barrister Dean Armstrong KC during a press conference held by the legal team featured in the BBC documentary Al-Fayed: Predator At Harrods.
