Paris Court Acquits Diana Photographers: A Paris appeals court on Tuesday upheld the acquittals of three photographers accused of invasion of privacy after they took pictures of Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed at the scene of their deadly crash.
Jacques Langevin, Christian Martinez and Fabrice Chassery were first acquitted last November. Fayed's father, Egyptian-born billionaire Mohammed al Fayed, filed an appeal, which the Paris court rejected.
"Photos like that are taken everyday in every country in the world," said Langevin. "The judges were courageous. Justice has been done - for the moment."
His lawyer, Francois Stefanaggi, did not rule out that al Fayed might again seek to appeal. But he said the ruling showed that photographers were not responsible for the famous couple's deaths.
