With more than 100 women having come forward to allege being raped or assaulted by the Egyptian tycoon, the luxury store said it had launched a review and was in direct contact with Scotland Yard.
The store published a statement last Friday in which it condemned the actions of an individual who was intent on abusing his power and encouraged women to come forward to it so that it could settle claims in the quickest way possible.
Bruce Drummond, a barrister at the New Bailey chambers acting for the Justice for Harrods Survivors group, said he had concerns over the attempt to directly liaise with victims.
As part of our due diligence there is an ongoing internal review (supported by external counsel) including looking at whether any current staff were involved in any of the allegations either directly or indirectly.
