65 NEW SEX CLAIMS AGAINST AL FAYED

'Victims' include 28 non-Harrods staff

MORE than two dozen women who were never employed by Harrods are among a new group of 65 claimants alleging they were sexually abused by Mohamed AI Fayed.

AI Fayed, who owned the Knightsbridge store between 1985 and 2010, is said to have targeted one of the women in Dubai, 47 years ago.

The group of 65 join hundreds of other women who have already made allegations against the late billionaire.

They approached the BBC after it broadcast a documentary last month raising claims of abuse and a cover-up.
