Three former employees of Harrods have accused Ali Fayed of sexual assault occurring in the 1990s when he and his brothers owned the department store. The women reported that they faced harassment or abuse from Mohamed Al Fayed prior to Ali's actions. Ali Fayed has denied all allegations, labeling them as unsubstantiated, while one of the accusers recounted a particularly traumatic incident that occurred in the family's Scottish home. The women’s testimonies highlight the pervasive culture of silence surrounding abuse, especially in powerful institutions.
The allegations come at a time of renewed scrutiny regarding the behavior of powerful figures from past decades and the culture of silence surrounding them.
Women have bravely come forward to share their experiences, significantly highlighting the importance of addressing historical abuse in powerful institutions.
