Harrods ‘must take responsibility’ for ‘monster’ Mohamed Fayed, lawyers say

Barrister Dean Armstrong KC, who is representing some of the tycoon’s reported victims, told a press conference that the case “combines some of the most horrific elements of the cases involving Jimmy Savile, Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein”. He said: “I have many years of practice...
