French court case
In 2016 the magazine Le Point reported that Hassa bint Salman ordered her bodyguard Rani Saïdi to beat a plumber for taking a picture of her. The plumber was called to her apartment in Paris because of a broken bathroom fixture. In the course of taking photographs of the scene he accidentally took a picture in which the Princess could be seen reflected in a mirror. The Princess took offense to this and ordered her bodyguard to beat the man and then forced him at gunpoint to apologize and kiss her feet. He had formerly worked on a bathroom in an apartment on Avenue Foch owned by King Salman. The plumber testified that the Princess said "Kill him, the dog, he doesn’t deserve to live.” In 2018 a French judge ordered the arrest of the Princess.
In September 2019 she was convicted in absentia of armed violence for the incident. She received a 10-month suspended prison sentence and a fine of 10,000 euros. Saïdi was convicted of violence, sequestration, and theft.
Personal life
She was previously married to Mamdouh bin Abdul Rahman Al Saud, which ended in divorce. On 28 May 2021, she wed Fahd bin Saad Al Saud at the Royal Sea Place in Jeddah.
