Why did police do nothing? Met took no action against Mohamed al-Fayed despite 19 sex assault and rape reports – amid claims of 'corrupt' relationship between Harrods tycoon and Scotland Yard

The Metropolitan Police took no action against Mohamed al-Fayed despite 19 sex assault and rape reports, the force has admitted.  

There were allegations from 19 different women, with three allegations of rape, 15 of sexual assault and one related to trafficking.

Yet despite this, the force admitted that for every allegation, no further action was taken against the then-Harrods owner.

It came as a former Scotland Yard chief superintendent claimed Harrods’s close relationship with the Met Police ‘felt corrupt‘. 

Stephen Otter alleged he was told by another officer in 1999 that the ‘special relationship’ with the department store ‘benefits both us and them’.
