Probe into claim Diana was murdered

Police are examining new information which alleges that Princess Diana and Dodi al Fayed were murdered by a member of the British military.

Scotland Yard said it is “scoping” the information and “assessing its relevance and credibility”.

The claims were passed to the Metropolitan Police by the Royal Military Police (RMP), which was told of them by the former parents- in-law of a former soldier based on information that the ex-soldier had talked about in the past, according to a military source.
