A Saudi Arabian prince is accused of a having sexual relationship with a male aide, taking cocaine and threatening to kill women who refused his advances - as well as sexually assaulting a maid – Daily Mail Online has exclusively learned.
Prince Majed bin Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud – revealed by Daily Mail Online yesterday to be son of the late King Abdullah – now faces an extraordinary series of allegations in a civil case brought by three female staff members of his Los Angeles mansion.
Court documents seen by Daily Mail Online disclose how he is accused of being drunk and high at his $37 million mansion in Beverly Hills and repeatedly making unwanted sexual advances.
The documents were filed by lawyers acting for three female employees of Al Saud.
They include a claim that the royal attempted to urinate on the trio while screaming: 'I want to pee pee'.
He also threatened to kill one of the women if she refused to 'party' with him and jumped on top of another and began rubbing himself against her in a 'sexual and aggressive manner'.
When asked to stop, Al Saud allegedly then yelled: 'I am a prince and I do what I want. You are nobody!'
All three of the women claim to have seen the royal having his penis 'stroked' by a male aide and say they were forced to stay in the room and watch as the encounter unfolded.
Homosexuality is illegal in Saudi Arabia, and punishable by flogging, or even execution.
Another says she was made to watch while a different male aide bent over and broke wind in Al Saud's face – apparently at his request.
The revelations about Prince Majed come a day after it was revealed that Los Angeles District Attorney has decided to drop felony charges against the 29-year-old due to lack of evidence.
Instead, the case has been passed to LA city attorney Mike Feur who will now decide whether to pursue misdemeanor charges – which could lead to a year in jail and a $3,000 fine should he be convicted.
But lawyers for the women bringing the civil case say they are determined to succeed.
The women, all of whom are married with children, say they still have not been paid by the prince and are hoping to recover their lost earnings.
The women's claims stem from a period between September 21 and September 25 – when Al Saud was arrested – and all took place at the Wallingford Drive mansion.
The women had been employed by the prince to care for the house during his American holiday, although he also brought with him three friends and a group of butlers and other staff.
On September 21, Al Saud threw a party at the property and arranged for 'multiple escorts' to attend.
During the course of the evening, he became 'increasingly intoxicated' and was seen engaging in 'illicit drug abuse' by the three women.
According to the women, this was cocaine – a conclusion they arrived at after seeing white powder around the rims of his nostrils and his 'abnormally dilated' pupils.
The following evening, September 22, he held a second party where he 'continued to engage in heavy drinking, cocaine use and more escorts came to the residence'.
That night, Al Saud is alleged to have 'violently' grabbed the first woman's hand 10 times and shouted 'I like you!' before insisting that she remain beside him at all times.
He also threatened her, saying: 'Tomorrow I will have a party with you and you will do everything I want or I will kill you.'
The following day came the incident in which he attempted to urinate on the trio but was dragged away by an assistant before he could do so.
The women claim they attempted to hide in the dining room but 10 minutes later, found themselves once more subjected to Al Saud's bizarre behavior, including the incident in which he rubbed himself 'in a sexual manner' against the second woman.
According to the document, she attempted to reason with him, saying 'I'm a woman', only for Al Saud to turn around and scream: 'You're not a woman, you are a nobody! I'm a prince and I will do what I want and nobody will do anything to me!'
The women, by then hiding on a balcony, were spotted by one of Al Saud's assistants who screamed at them to get back to work, adding that they must be with the prince at all times and were not allowed to have breaks.
By now in tears, the trio pleaded with the aide, telling them they were terrified of Al Saud, having already seen him physically abuse his butlers by pulling their ears, punching them in the face and by throwing things.
Again told to return to work, the second woman then approached Al Saud to pour him a drink – only to be subjected to a violent assault that left her badly bruised.
The women then attempted to leave the mansion but discovered they had been locked in by Al Saud's aides and were told they were not allowed to leave.
It was then that the royal threatened to kill the third woman, telling her: 'You are going to go upstairs. I will be there in two minutes and you'll do whatever I want. If not, then I'll kill you.'
Al Saud then, it is alleged, became even more agitated and began to 'scream and make animal like sounds'.
At this point the women managed to leave the house but without their personal possessions – forcing them to return the following day.
Once there, they were told that Al Saud had 'slept off' the drugs and alcohol he had consumed and would not bother them anymore.
However, after telling aides they did not want to continue working for the prince, they were threatened with forfeiting their wages and were again locked inside the house on the grounds that the royal needed '24-hour service'.
When they did finally encounter the prince again, he was, say the women, being masturbated by another man who was 'stroking his penis'.
But when they attempted to leave the room, the 29-year-old spotted them and ordered them to stay and watch.
The first woman was also ordered to stop and watch as a different aide passed wind in Al Saud's face - again after stumbling upon the prince and his retainers in a room at the mansion, the documents say.
She was also asked to 'lick my whole body' by Al Saud in exchange for payment and says he became aggressive when she refused.
Their ordeal finally ended after police were called to the house where the prince's girlfriend, who he had earlier accused of having sex with another man in the bathroom of a club the previous evening, and the original complainant were found covered in blood, crying and shaking.
Al Saud was then arrested and led away by the LAPD, allegedly screaming: 'No news!' at onlookers as he was bundled into a police car.
Of the civil case, the prince's lawyer, Alan Jackson, said: 'I will not dignify these salacious allegations - which the District attorney found to be unsupported by evidence - with a response.'
Yesterday, he said of the criminal case: 'The decision by the D.A.'s office not to file charges shows that the accuser's stories cannot be substantiated.
'The sheikh is very happy to put it behind him and move on with his life.'
However, Jackson's words produced an irate response from the team acting on behalf of the women with attorney Vadim Frish describing his words as 'seriously false and troubling statements'.
He added: 'Mr Jackson's statements that the allegations are 'concocted', that this is nothing but a 'shakedown', and that our clients are 'trying to take advantage of a wealthy person' could not be farther from the truth.
'Eventually, the whole truth will surface and Mr. Al Saud will have to bear the consequences of his despicable actions.
'No one, including a member of the Royal Saudi family, should get away with this appalling behavior.'
The prince is still in southern California according to his lawyers.
However, he has not been seen at his rented $37 million Beverly Glen mansion since his arrest late last month and is thought by neighbors to have fled the country.
Al Saud, who was allowed to leave LAPD custody after posting a $300,000 bond, was initially charged with sex offenses including 'forced oral copulation', and battery.
LA city attorney Mike Feur is putting together the criminal case and yesterday said a court date will be scheduled for later this year.
The claims echo those made during the trial of Prince Saud bin Abdulaziz who in 2009 was convicted of the sexually motivated killing of his Sudanese manservant Bandar Abdulaziz.
The prince, 36, subjected Bandar to a prolonged campaign of violence and sexual abuse before beating him to death in a suite at London's Landmark Hotel.
Sentenced to life imprisonment by the Old Bailey court in the British capital, he was deported to Saudi Arabia in 2013 under the terms of a prisoner exchange deal and is currently incarcerated in a Saudi jail.
Despite being one of an estimated 35 children born to Saudi Arabia’s late King Abdullah, Al Saud, who holds no official post, has nonetheless been tasked with high-level duties in the past.
In photos taken earlier this year, Al Saud can be seen welcoming dignitaries to Riyadh following the death of his 90-year-old father.
One shows him welcoming Dubai’s ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Makhtoum, who also holds the titles of Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, to the Saudi capital.
The two are followed closely by 66-year-old Sheikh Mohammed’s son and heir, the popular Crown Prince Hamdan, 32.
A further photo shows him greeting Turkey’s controversial president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, 61, on the tarmac at King Khalid International.
The pictures are significant because they show the esteem in which Al Saud is held in his native land – and by his father and extended family.
Saudi Arabia is home to thousands of princes, although those from the royal branch of the House of Saud take most of the high level roles.
Regardless, all posts in the kingdom within the gift of absolute monarch King Salman, 79, who has appointed members of his immediate family to key roles since taking the throne.
One especially striking appointment was that of Defense Minister – a post handed to his 30-year-old son Prince Mohammed, who was also made deputy crown prince.
The current Crown Prince is Mohammed bin Nayef, 55, the Interior Minister and a nephew of Salman’s.
With the succession decided for two generations, the chances of Al Saud being given a more prominent role are small – even more so following his arrest last month.
Whether another job will be forthcoming depends on the views of King Salman and his advisors, although with thousands of royals to choose from, nothing is guaranteed.
