The king of Saudi Arabia's daughter is a "caring, humble" person

PARIS, July 8 (Reuters) - The king of Saudi Arabia's daughter is a "caring, humble" person who is the victim of false allegations that she ordered a bodyguard to beat up a workman in her luxury flat in Paris, the princess' lawyer said.

-Princess Hassa bint Salman       is due to go on trial in absentia on Tuesday on charges of complicity to violence with a weapon and complicity to kidnap an Egyptian-born artisan who was carrying out repairs at her father's residence on the exclusive Avenue Foch in September 2016.

According to the indictment, seen by Reuters, workman Ashraf Eid told police the bodyguard bound his hands, punched and kicked him and forced him to kiss the princess' feet after she accused him of filming her on his cell phone.

The bodyguard was placed under formal investigation on suspicion of armed violence, theft and holding someone against their will and denied bail on Oct. 1, 2016.

Eid told police that as he was being beaten, Princess Hassa treated him like a dog and said to him "you'll see how you speak to a princess, how you speak to the royal family". The princess, 43, the sister of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, denies any wrongdoing.  https://news.yahoo.com/saudi-princess-bodyguard-workman-french-144606018.html
