The women claimed Harrods management was aware of the allegations at the time, but helped cover them up. "These were the actions of an individual who was intent on abusing his power wherever he operated and we condemn them in the strongest terms. We also acknowledge that during this time as a business we failed our employees who were his victims and for this we sincerely apologise."
