Met Criticised Over Plan to Give Alleged Fayed Victims Video Update
The Guardian
|July 11, 2025
Women allegedly assaulted by the late Mohamed Al Fayed feel let down by police investigators, their advocate has said as she criticised the Metropolitan police for planning to "resort" to sending a video to keep them updated.
The comments by Dame Jasvinder Sanghera, who was appointed by Harrods as an independent survivors' advocate, came as it was reported that the Met had written to the women apologising for the distress they had suffered, especially as Fayed would never face justice.
Dozens of women have come forward with allegations of abuse by the late Harrods owner going as far back as 1977, with numbers steadily increasing since the broadcast last year of the BBC documentary Al Fayed: Predator at Harrods.
