94% OF YOU BELIEVE DIANA WAS MURDERED

Diana death inquiry findings due
(Press Association, December 11, 2006)

The investigation into the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, and Dodi Fayed will be published at noon on Thursday, Scotland Yard has confirmed.

Lord Stevens will hold a press conference at the QE2 centre in London to unveil the findings of his three-year inquiry.

He will be joined by Deputy Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Paul Stevenson and the senior investigating officer, Detective Chief Superintendent David Douglas.

Diana, 36, and 42-year-old Dodi, were killed along with chauffeur Henri Paul when their Mercedes crashed in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris in August 31, 1997.

The report examines conspiracy theories surrounding their deaths including allegations that the couple were murdered. Dodi's father, Harrods boss Mohamed al Fayed, is among those who have claimed Diana and her lover were killed in an MI5 plot.

Former Met Police chief Lord Stevens, who was asked to undertake the high-profile inquiry when the inquest into Diana's death opened and adjourned in January 2004, is expected to conclude it was an accident.

The couple had been pursued by paparazzi photographers after leaving the Ritz Hotel for Mr Fayed's apartment. A two-year investigation in France blamed Mr Paul for losing control because he was high on drink and prescription drugs and was driving too fast.

One of the conspiracy theories suggested the blood samples from the chauffeur were switched, a claim understood to have been disproved by new DNA tests.

Other revelations rumoured to be in Lord Stevens' report include allegations the US secret service was bugging the Princess's telephone conversations in the hours before she died and confirmation she was not pregnant.

His inquiry, estimated to have cost as much as £4 million, is said to bring together some 20,000 documents and 1,500 witness statements.

Metropolitan Police officers used cutting edge computer technology to reconstruct the crash scene and examined the Mercedes in painstaking detail. Lady Butler-Sloss, who is now in charge of Diana's inquest, is due to resume the hearings in early 2007 - the year which marks the 10th anniversary of Diana's death.

Steve,

I am glad you responded to my post. It seems that a great deal of new information is coming out. There is also a report that U. S. intelligence was wiretapping Diana's phone! What would be the purpose of that?

I wonder what the percentage of people is of those who could care less.

She was a good-looking fruitcake with a lovely smile.

I managed to buy the plants in the end though, that was the main thing.
