At least 37 women come forward saying they were raped or sexually assaulted, as abuse of minors added to tally of claims against billionaire

Multiple former employees told the BBC they had been raped or sexually assaulted by the billionaire businessman, who died last year.

The high-end London department store, Harrods, said Thursday that it is “utterly appalled” by allegations of abuse – including rape – perpetrated by its former owner, the late billionaire Mohamed Al Fayed.

LONDON (AP) -- Mohamed Al Fayed, the former boss of Harrods, was a "monster' who raped and sexually abused young women, lawyers representing dozens of his accusers said Friday.

Pressure is mounting on a Harrods boss to reveal what he knew about Mohamed Fayed’s alleged attacks on multiple women. More than 100 alleged victims have accused Fayed, who died last year aged 94, of sexual abuse and rape in the wake of a BBC documentary that aired last week.

London department store Harrods says it is “a very different organisation” to the one owned and controlled by Al Fayed between 1985 and 2010.
