Camilla Fayed, the 39-year-old daughter of Mohamed Al Fayed, has pleaded not guilty to a charge of robbing her brother, Omar Fayed, of his £1,900 iPhone. The alleged incident occurred on May 18th, 2020, at the gym of the family’s Grade I listed estate, Barrow Green Court, near Oxted in Surrey. The family’s sprawling estate is located in central London.
According to reports, Camilla Fayed spoke to confirm her identity and pleaded not guilty to the robbery charge during a hearing at Guildford Crown Court on Friday morning. Her husband, Mohamad Esreb, 43, and two other individuals, Matthew Littlewood, 34, and Andrew Bott, 52, are also accused of theft in relation to the same alleged incident.
Mohamed Al Fayed, the patriarch of the Fayed family, passed away in September at the age of 94. The family’s history is deeply rooted in luxury retail, with Mohamed Al Fayed being the former owner of Harrods. The family’s estate, Barrow Green Court, is a testament to their wealth and prestige.
The trial is expected to commence on February 3rd next year and is expected to last three weeks. It remains to be seen what evidence will be presented during the trial to determine the guilt or innocence of the accused. In the meantime, the Fayed family’s drama continues to unfold in the courts.
Andrew Bott, who is accused of robbery along with Camilla Fayed and her co-defendants, has pleaded not guilty to the charge. Mohamad Esreb, Bott’s co-defendant, has also entered a plea of not guilty. Matthew Littlewood, on the other hand, will be arraigned at a later date.
The alleged incident has left the Fayed family reeling, with the family’s reputation and legacy potentially at stake. As the trial approaches, the spotlight will continue to shine on the Fayed family as they navigate this challenging and public drama.
