In a press conference in the UK, lawyers representing 37 alleged victims described the late billionaire Mohamed Al Fayed as a "monster" and a "predator" who preyed on vulnerable individuals. Allegations include sexual abuse and exploitation at Harrods, the luxury department store he owned. One victim recounted being summoned to Fayed's apartment under false pretenses, where she faced sexual misconduct. Lawyers likened the case to those of notorious abusers like Jimmy Savile and Harvey Weinstein, highlighting a "system of abuse" that spanned Al Fayed's businesses. Harrods expressed its "utmost appall" at the allegations.
