Nigel Blow Withdraws as Fenwick CEO Amid Allegations

Nigel Blow, a former Harrods executive, has withdrawn from the role of chief executive at Fenwick amid ongoing controversy surrounding allegations of sexual abuse against his former employer, Mohamed Al Fayed. Blow, who worked at Harrods from 1992 to 2007, was set to assume the position this month but decided against it after questions arose regarding his suitability in light of the allegations. Al Fayed, who died last year, is accused of multiple sexual assaults, with over 100 women reportedly coming forward with claims following a BBC documentary. Fenwick has not disclosed the reason for Blow's withdrawal, which he expressed disappointment over, emphasizing his lack of knowledge about the alleged misconduct. The allegations have prompted legal action from barristers representing alleged victims, with the Justice For Harrods Survivors campaign now having over 70 clients. Harrods is currently conducting an internal review regarding the claims against Al Fayed and any potential complicity among former executives.
