Death of Lady Diana: Tragic accident or conspiracy?

The "Lord Stevens" enquiry into Lady Di's death has ruled it as "A tragic accident"
A lot of people arent buying it, but a lot of others are,as lets face it, car accidents happen often enough. What are your thoughts?

See story below:


Diana death a 'tragic accident'

Lord Stevens said he hoped the report would bring some closure

At-a-glance: inquiry report
An official UK police inquiry into the Paris car crash which killed Princess Diana and Dodi Al Fayed has found no evidence the couple were murdered.
Lord Stevens, who led the three-year investigation, said the 1997 crash was a "tragic accident".

The inquiry report said chauffeur Henri Paul, who also died, was speeding and over the legal drink-drive limit.

A spokesman for Mr Al Fayed's father said he does not accept the findings as questions remain "unanswered".

Michael Cole said it was "highly unsatisfactory" that up to 18 key witnesses to the crash were not interviewed by the Metropolitan Police's inquiry into the death.

He called for next year's inquests to be heard before a jury so that the evidence presented by Lord Stevens could be "thoroughly tested".

The princess, 36, and Mr Al Fayed, 42, died when their Mercedes crashed in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in August 1997.

"There was no conspiracy to murder any of the occupants of that car," Lord Stevens said.

The findings - contained within an 832 page document - form part of the inquest into the deaths of the couple.

Mr Al Fayed's father, Mohamed, said the £3.69m spent on the Stevens inquiry was a total waste.

"I feel sorry for the taxpayers and the money that has been wasted on such garbage," he said.

"Whatever it's going to cost me, if it costs me the last penny in my purse, I'm not going to rest until I get the gangsters."

Mr Al Fayed said he would "definitely" accept a verdict by an inquest jury if it heard all the evidence.

Lord Stevens told a news conference in London the report addresses the key issues emerging from a "most complex and challenging" investigation.


The inquiry brought together 1,500 witness statements

"I have no doubt that speculation as to what happened that night will continue and that there are some matters, as in many

Even IF anything untoward was found from the inquiry report, there is no hope in hell that anything would come out of it considering the calibre of people allegedly involved with planning the accident.

It's better for Mr Al Fayed to leave it to God to judge and juridised the people involved - if indeed the accident was as people are speculating, that is.
