Alam loses sex discrimination case against FA
Ms Alam, who also had a high-profile fling with the organisation's ex-chief executive Mark Palios, alleged that executive director David Davies had made unwanted advances towards her and pestered her for sex.
Last night, after an employment tribunal threw out her claims for sexual discrimination and unfair dismissal, Mr Davies - who had always vehemently denied the allegations - said he had been through a "cruel and painful experience".
Former model Ms Alam, 39, who was reportedly seeking £30,000 (€47,434) in damages, was said to be "very disappointed".
The FA hailed the rulings, saying they vindicated its decision to "robustly" defend its position, and described the allegations against Mr Davies as "both hurtful and unfounded".
The London tribunal unanimously ruled that Ms Alam's sexual discrimination claim - which included the harassment allegations against Mr Davies - was "not well founded" and rejected it.
Her unfair dismissal allegation was rejected by a majority judgment.
The three-strong panel's explanations for their decisions, which come as Mr Eriksson faces resignation calls over his team's dismal performance against Northern Ireland, have not yet been published.
Ms Alam, who is now working in America in the fashion industry, resigned from her position last August after details of her affairs with Mr Eriksson and Mr Palios became public.
She quit via a fax sent from the office of PR consultant Max Clifford moments after finalising deals worth £300,000 (€474,348) to sell the story of her relationship with the 57-year-old soccer boss.
The tribunal heard she sent a string of explicit emails detailing her affairs with Mr Eriksson - whom she called "Sugar" - and Mr Palios, dubbed "PP" or "Pretty Polly". Ms Alam speculated in the messages that her lifestyle would make her "very, very rich".
