The memorial fund set up in the name of the late Diana, Princess of Wales, to aid charity has come under renewed criticism -- from the man whose son died in the car crash which killed Diana.

The chairman of the London store, Harrods, Mohammed Al Fayed, said he didn't know what the fund was doing with the money it had raised, apart from putting on show business events and licensing margarine.

Mr Al Fayed said he was shocked that the fund had rejected his proposal to establish a school for traumatised children.

A spokesman for the fund said they had been keen to look at the idea but had concluded the building selected was not suitable.
