PART TWO

THE MURDER

NINE

Dodi was a divorced Muslim playboy who had enjoyed casual love affairs with a score or more famous actresses and models. His father was an Establishment-unfriendly billionaire who had bought his way into British society, had serious question marks over the source of his wealth and was brother-in-law to the world’s biggest arms dealer. Every aspect of the relationship between Dodi, Mohamed Al Fayed and Princess Diana was alarming and, just one year after the divorce, the “loose cannon” seemed primed to explode.

One who appeared to see it coming was Prince Edward. When he was told she had been killed, he said, “It was the only way it was going to end. It was amazing it took that long for it to happen.”

To the horrified members of the Establishment who saw the growing probability of marriage to the Egyptian playboy, prompting Diana’s conversion to Islam, and the birth of a brown-skinned, Muslim half-brother or sister for the future King William, the unfolding scenario was totally unacceptable. Rumors already abounded that the princess was pregnant—rumors that were given greater credence after her murder by the illegal violation of her body, carried out in secret in Paris under the guise of embalming. Word in Paris is that a senior secretary in Charles’s office gave the go-ahead, which was passed on by Sir Michael Jay, the British ambassador; but whoever did give the French doctors their orders that day must have believed the rumors, otherwise why order the mini-embalming? The only possible reason was to muddy the waters of pregnancy speculation with formaldehyde.

Paris police commander Jean-Claude Mules, the man who signed Diana’s death certificate, says the decision to embalm a part of Diana’s body was made by a higher authority than himself. “Top police inspectors do not know about these things that take place at the diplomatic level,” he said. No one on the French side thought to question if it was Diana’s next of kin giving the orders. Prince Charles, remember, was not even related to her after their divorce. Her true next of kin were her mother and Prince William.

Confirmation that the princess was pregnant would have meant the racist element condemning her for producing a mixed-race child. The more liberal would have been supportive. Each faction would have had differing advice for William and Harry: to reject their mother’s half-caste baby, or welcome it into the family with open arms.

Former MI6 officer Richard Tomlinson revealed that during his time with the British intelligence service he learned that there was unofficial but direct contact between certain senior and influential MI6 officers and senior members of the royal household, including those who practiced their dark arts in St. James’s Palace and its twin palace of Buckingham. Many of these men share an Oxbridge background and continue to intermingle throughout their lives. They would have been told about any CIA operation against Diana and would have supported further MI6 involvement, said Tomlinson, who worked for British intelligence for five-and-a-half years.
