Henri Paul passed a complicated aviation medical test just days before the horror crash with pals believing he is victim of a conspiracy to kill Diana.

Princess Diana ’s driver Henri Paul was given a clean bill of health for a pilot’s licence just 72 hours before the car crash that killed them and Dodi Fayed.
Henri’s aviation medical certificate – seen exclusively by the Sunday People – appears to nail repeated claims that he was an alcoholic whose drinking was partly to blame for the horrendous pile-up
The hard-won certificate, which the flying fanatic had to pass every year, also seems to demolish the official French investigation report that he was suffering from depression.
The never-before-seen document has been made public by Henri’s oldest friend, Claude Garrec.

“If Henri was an alcoholic and depressive how was this signed by a doctor just three days before he died?” says Garrec
And another of Henri’s friends tracked down by the Sunday People, Paris bar owner Josy Duclos, who saw him at 8.45pm on the night of the crash, says she never saw him drunk.
Garrec, who believes his pal is the victim of a conspiracy to kill Diana, says: “There have been no answers even 20 years on.
“And one particularly strong memory for me was the message on a wreath at his funeral, ‘We are not fooled’.”
