'KISS MY FEET DOG' 

Saudi princess ‘made decorator kiss her feet’ inside palatial Paris flat before allegedly telling bodyguard: ‘You have to kill this dog’

The painter was then 'bound and beaten up' by the multi-millionaire's security staff

A SAUDI Arabian princess reportedly made a painter and decorator kiss her feet inside a palatial Paris flat before telling a bodyguard: ‘You have to kill this dog, he doesn’t deserve to live.’

In the latest alleged example of royalty from the Gulf kingdom abusing overseas staff in France, the unnamed multi-millionaire is said to have attacked the worker in the French capital earlier this summer.

The bizarre incident happened inside a luxury flat in the shadow of the Arc de Triomphe

He had arrived at the property in Avenue Foch, a hugely prestigious road that runs off the Arc de Triomphe, to carry out some basic decorating.

But when the Princess saw the workman taking photographs on his smart phone camera – something decorators do routinely nowadays – she is said to have accused him of preparing to sell them to the media.

She allegedly then ordered her bodyguards to beat him up, tied his hands and feet together, and then made him kiss her feet.

Le Point, the French news outlet, reports the ‘You have to kill this dog, he doesn’t deserve to live’ allegation, saying it has been passed on the police.

The entire ordeal is said to have lasted for up to four hours, before the man was kicked out of the flat, and told to ‘never return’ to the area.

Later he asked for the equivalent of some £16,000 for work done, and for the return of his tools.

Le Point said he then made a report to the police, showing them bruises on his head, which he said were caused by the attack.

The dispute over the money may well hamper any future criminal enquiry, as will the privileged manner in which Saudi royalty is treated in France.

Not only is the country a massive market for French arms sales but some of the most prestigious real estate in the country is owned by Saudis.

Unlike French security guards, their protection staff are allowed to carry guns thanks to diplomatic agreements.
