Judge Reopens Rape Case Against News Corp. Investor
Saudi prince is second largest shareholder in media giant
A Spanish judge has reopened a sexual assault case against Saudi prince and second largest News Corp. shareholder Alwaleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz al-Saud, The New York Times reports.
The case alleged that the prince raped a model on his yacht in Ibiza, Spain, in August 2008. The name of the accuser was never publicly revealed, nor was the case highly publicized, and it was eventually closed in July 2010 for lack of evidence. But on appeal, a Spanish court ordered the judge to resume investigations and to summon Prince Alwaleed to appear.
