Rachael Louw says she was subjected to invasive sexual health tests, surveillance and inappropriate touching.

Says she was propositioned by Salah al Fayed , who one night climbed into bed with her while she was working as his personal assistant on his yacht in Monaco .

Upon her return to the Harrods store in London , the chairman, Mohamed , also preyed on her.

Ms Louw was in her early 20s when she moved from university to London in 1993 .

Rachael was asked to visit the chairman at his flat in Park Lane to secure paperwork she needed to take a sabbatical to Australia .

She said Mohamed al Fayed tried to persuade her to stay that day , and not go to Australia . "I was half expecting him to pull out this paperwork. I turned around and he said: 'Let's discuss your future'".
