Two women have raised complaints about the force's response to an investigation into Al Fayed in 2013.
The Metropolitan Police has referred itself to the police watchdog over complaints from two women about the handling of investigations into allegations made against Mohamed Al Fayed. The two women made complaints about investigations from 2008 and 2013.
“This process remains active, and we are committed to assessing all new allegations, pursuing justice where possible and transparently addressing any failings. In recent weeks, two victims-survivors have come forward with concerns about how their allegations were handled when first reported, and it is only appropriate that the IOPC assess these complaints.
