The UK's Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) decided not to charge Mohamed Al Fayed, former owner of Harrods, despite allegations of sexual assault and rape from multiple women. Reviews in 2009 and 2015 found insufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction. Following a BBC documentary, over 150 new inquiries have emerged regarding Al Fayed's alleged misconduct. The Metropolitan Police will investigate any new information related to these allegations.
