Henry Paul told not to drive before crash, Diana inquest hears

The man who drove Diana, Princess of Wales, and her lover Dodi Fayed on the journey on which they were killed knew he should not have been at the wheel, a court heard today.

Henri Paul, acting head of security at the Ritz Hotel in Paris, was reminded moments before setting off that it was not his job to drive the couple but said nothing, their inquest was told.
