Harrods seeks to recover abuse compensation costs from Mohamed Al Fayed’s estate

Harrods has filed a claim to retrieve the costs it paid in abuse compensation from the estate of its former owner, Mohamed Al Fayed. The move follows a settlement that compensated victims of historic sexual abuse linked to the department store in the UK. Survivors argue that seeking reimbursement contradicts Harrods’ public statements taking responsibility for the wrongdoing.
