Default Former Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed raped staff

[Former Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed
has been accused of rape, with five female
ex-employees alleging the late billionaire
sexually assaulted them while in charge
of the luxury London department store.

A new BBC documentary says the
Egyptian-born businessman - who died
in London aged 94 in August 2023 - carried out
the attacks during his time in charge
of the outlet between 1984 and its sale in 2010.


The corporation says more than
20 female former workers at Harrods
have come forward to accuse
him of sexual abuse and presiding
over a 'culture of fear' at the department store.]

Probably Kaz because he probably had connections with unlikeable people and they felt threatened and possibly in fear of their lives.

There were stories and accusations at the time, but it's the same old story, wealthy man, friends with royalty, protected from prosecution.

He was always a con man and a thug, really not much different from Saville

A lot of men in power have trouble keeping their manhood in their trousers. Very odd.

…of course…it’s a sign of the times also, sadly…I can understand why the females involved felt unable to speak out…but have that need to tell their stories…

Power is addicting. Men who equate their own prowess with their ability to acquire sexual favors will do so just to prove their status to others has no equal. It becomes a pattern when society continually rewards them for their persistence. In certain industriess, sex and power are synonymous and so it's almost expected men will have to behave a certain way to not be easy pickings in that crowd... (ie Hollywood)

Some people are more susceptible to this game than others. Add in serious drug use and it's a recipe for degeneracy.

You can not call them corrupt.

It is just the way Legal Companies
have extreme power
when a Rich Rapist pays them.

[I warned the Queen that Fayed was a dirty old man,
says former Royal security chief: Elizabeth was told
Harrods boss was 'abuser of women' - while questions grow
over why Starmer failed to charge him when at the CPS

A BBC investigation revealed slew of sexual assault
allegations against Al-Fayed
Police were first made aware of accusations
against Al-Fayed in the 1990s
Sir Keir Starmer has faced questions
about the failure to prosecute Al-Fayed]

The only thing that I'm going to say is that he can't defend himself from these allegations.

However 20 allegations doesn't look good for him.
