London
The head of the panel investigating the 1997 car crash that killed Princess Diana and her lover Dodi al-Fayed said this week the case was “far more complex” than previously thought. Lord Stevens, who rarely gives interviews about the investigation, told British television that Dodi’s father, Harrods owner Mohamed al-Fayed, had been right to raise concerns about the crash. British media speculated that Lord Stevens’ remarks were intended to prepare the public for some kind of shocking revelation when the panel issues its report in a few months. A French police investigation concluded that Diana’s driver was drunk, and crashed while speeding away from paparazzi.
