BBC Online :
Los Angeles prosecutors say they will not press charges against a Saudi prince accused of sexual assault.
Majed Abdulaziz Al-Saud, 28, was arrested last month on suspicion of forced oral copulation with a worker at his Beverly Hills mansion. But prosecutors say they do not have enough evidence against Mr Al-Saud.
Mr Al-Saud’s lawyer, Alan Jackson, said his client was innocent and claimed the case was “some kind of shakedown for money”.
The case has been forwarded to the city attorney for a possible misdemeanour charge, Jane Robison, a spokesperson for the city attorney’s office, said. There were four alleged victims and one did not cooperate with authorities, Ms Robison added.
