London CNN —Sixty-five more women have come forward with abuse allegations against the late billionaire Mohamed Al Fayed, according to the BBC, following the network’s documentary that detailed testimonies of women who said he sexually assaulted and raped them.
Among the dozens of women who contacted the BBC with new accounts of abuse, 37 said they had worked at Harrods, the British broadcaster reported.
One said she was assaulted when she was 15 and Al Fayed was 79.
Harrods acknowledged that Al Fayed was “intent on abusing his power wherever he operated” and apologized to victims in a statement released at the time.
“We are utterly appalled by the allegations of abuse perpetrated by Mohamed Al Fayed,” the company said.
