Scotland Yard enquiry about Diana's death

In conclusion NSA did not spy (what are they paid for then ?)

NSA says it did not bug Diana phone calls

In a rare public comment on its intelligence operations, the National Security Agency said Monday that it had 39 documents containing references to the late Princess Diana but had never targeted her telephone communications for monitoring.


The statement came in response to British media reports that U.S. intelligence officials had intercepted Diana's calls on the day she died in a car crash in Paris in 1997.

According to the reports, the officials had assured Scotland Yard investigators that 39 classified documents about her final conversations revealed no sign that her death was anything but an accident. In its statement Monday, the agency said it had released information about the documents earlier. "The 39 NSA-originated and NSA-controlled documents referenced in a response to a Freedom of Information Act request in 1998 only contained references to the Princess, and she was never the communicant," the statement said. "NSA did not target Princess Diana's communications."

The agency declined to comment further pending release of the Scotland Yard report, which is due out Thursday. "NSA has cooperated with the investigations into this tragic incident to the full extent of the law ," it said.

Meanwhile, Princes William and Harry are planning a pop concert and memorial service next year to mark the 46th birthday of their mother and the 10th anniversary of her death.

And Scotland Yard 4 years enquiry concludes that Diana died in a simple car crash

An official inquiry into the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, concluded today that there was no evidence of any conspiracy to murder her.

The Princess was killed on August 31, 1997, when a Mercedes limousine that she was travelling crashed in a Paris underpass.

"Our conclusion is that on the evidence available now there was no conspiracy to murder any occupants of that car. This was a tragic accident," Lord Stevens of Kirkwhelpington, the former Scotland Yard chief called into investigate the crash, told a press conference.

Presenting a report on the death that amounts to 832 pages, Lord Stevens added that there was also no evidence that the Princess was pregnant or had intended to get engaged to her boyfriend, Dodi Al Fayed.

Lord Stevens said that his report was not intended to pre-empt a forthcoming inquest to be presided over by Lady Elizabeth Butler-Sloss, a former top judge.

Instead it was only called to look at allegations - especially from Dodi's father, the Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed - that there had been an establishment conspiracy involving the Duke of Edinburgh and UK security services.

"I decided that only a thorough and detailed allegation would answer these extremely serious allegation," Lord Stevens said as he launched his report this morning.

He said that the investigation had been unprecedented in its scale and nature and his team had received "excellent cooperation" from French authorities - whose own investigation decided that the crash was caused because of drunken speeding by the driver, Henri Paul.

 

[eagles fly free]

It took scotland yard 4 years and no one knows how much money to tell us something that was evident from the first day.... and blood samples they had all the time in their (french police) records.

I guess it is british mentality and goes with their attitude regarding certain thing like:

- We are still an empire (maybe you were one day, now you are nothig)
- We are the world champions in football (dahhh 40 years ago with a goal that
is still debated..)
- We have no problem with immigrants (two suicide attacks by british raise
muslims never happened)

In 40 years they will still talk about Diana and why and how she died.

As i see it. She is dead, let her rest in peace.
