At least 90 more people have come forward with sexual abuse allegations against Al Fayed after the BBC aired a documentary where 21 former Harrods accused the late billionaire of sexual assault and rape.

British police said they had launched an investigation into whether people linked to the late Egyptian billionaire Mohamed al-Fayed helped enable his alleged rape and other sexual abuse of female staff at his London department store Harrods and elsewhere.

British police say there are now 90 victims who have come forward with allegations of abuse against the late billionaire and former Harrods owner.
