Mohammed Al Fayed, August 2010

MORE than 200 allegations of abuse, including rape and sexual assault, against Mohamed al-Fayed have now been made as dozens more came forward this week.

The Metropolitan Police said it was investigating 40 new allegations yesterday after the BBC said a further 65 women made claims on Thursday.

Among the new claims is a woman who says she was assaulted by Al-Fayed in Dubai in 1977, the earliest accusation of abuse so far.
