Mohamed Fayed’s daughter has pleaded not guilty to a charge of robbing her brother of his phone.
Camilla Fayed, 39, denied ordering her bodyguards to steal her brother Omar’s £1,900 iPhone in the gym of the family’s Grade I listed estate, near Oxted in Surrey.
Ms Fayed, of Park Lane, central London, spoke to confirm her identity and to plead not guilty to robbery at Guildford Crown Court on Friday morning.
Her husband, Mohamad Esreb, 43, is also accused of a single count of robbery in relation to the alleged incident, along with the couple’s close protection officers Matthew Littlewood, 34, and Andrew Bott, 52.
Mr Esreb, of Park Lane, central London, and Mr Bott, of Coppice Wood, County Durham, also pleaded not guilty during the same hearing.
Mr Littlewood, of Colburn, North Yorkshire, will be arraigned at a later date.
Ms Fayed appeared in the dock dressed in a three-quarter length black coat and black trousers, with her hair up in a bun. Mr Esreb sat alongside her, wearing a white shirt and navy blue suit.
During a previous hearing at Guildford Crown Court, a trial date was set for Feb 3 next year. The trial is expected to last three weeks.
All four defendants were charged in February with a single count of robbery following a long police investigation.
The incident was said to have taken place at Barrow Green Court on May 18, 2020.
