More than three dozen people have brought 40 new allegations of sexual abuse and rape against Mohamed Al Fayed since a documentary aired last month about the late billionaire owner of Harrods department store in London, the Metropolitan Police said on Friday.
Since the BBC documentary was broadcast and law enforcement appealed to other victims to come forward, "detectives have received numerous pieces of information, predominantly relating to the activities of Mohamed Al Fayed but some relating to the actions of others," Commander Stephen Clayman said.
