00:21in its financial statements. Harrods set up a redress scheme to offer compensation to survivors
00:27which was open from the 31st of March 2025 to the same date this year. When the redress scheme was

00:56sexual misconducts have been made against Al-Fayed and other perpetrators linked to him dating between
01:021977 and 2014 including sexual assault, rape, sexual exploitation and human trafficking. The
