New Princess Diana death clues hunted A team of British detectives Wednesday prowled through the Paris tunnel where Princess Diana died in a 1997 car crash, using high-tech equipment to search for new clues to the accident.
The tunnel, part of a major artery along the Seine River, was closed to traffic for an eight-hour period beginning at 10 p.m. The information was destined for coroner inquests of Diana and her companion Dodi al Fayed. Detective David Douglas, chief superintendent of Scotland Yard, said the team hoped to learn exactly what happened "with the best equipment available now." The photographs and measurements "will be used to create a 3-D computer model of the scene, using new technology which was not available in 1997," said a statement from London's Metropolitan Police. The officers were scanning the area with special laser equipment, the statement said. French court has ruled that the crash was an accident caused by drunk and speeding driver Henri Paul, who also died. However, another investigation has been opened to determine whether the deadly crash could have been the result of a plot. An inquest was opened in Britain after persistent accusations from Dodi's father, Mohammed al Fayed, that Britain's Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth II, masterminded a conspiracy to kill Diana and Dodi because he disapproved of their relationship. London police commissioner John Stevens visited Paris last April to retrace
Diana's final moments to determine if she might have been the victim of a
criminal conspiracy.
