Paris: The sister of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is to be put on trial in Paris next month for allegedly ordering her bodyguard to beat up a workman in the French capital, a legal source told AFP on Wednesday. The case against Princess Hassa bint Salman stems from an alleged assault in her apartment on the ultra-expensive Avenue Foch in west Paris in September 2016.
The trial is due to be judged on July 9, the source said. The alleged victim said he was hired for refurbishment work at Princess Hassa’s apartment and she became angry after he took a photo, accusing him of wanting to sell it to the media.
