Four Al Fayed survivors recognised as trafficking victims

Four women, who have worked for or been associated with late Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed, have been officially recognised as victims of human trafficking by the UK's interior ministry. The women, whose pseudonyms are Isabella, Justine, Elizabeth, and Margo, have founded the No One Above advocacy group and have been working together to expose the alleged abuse by Al Fayed over a period of more than three decades.

The confirmation of their status as trafficking victims was made possible through the National Referral Mechanism (NRM), Britain's official framework to identify and support victims of human trafficking and modern slavery. The women's experiences include international and domestic trafficking, and their cases were referred to the NRM by the Unseen UK charity.
