Report: CIA Bugged Princess Diana’s Phone Calls

HeadlineDec 11, 2006

And new details have emerged about the death of Princess Diana. The Observer newspaper of London reports that the CIA was bugging Diana’s telephone conversations on the night of her death. The surveillance operation was conducted without the approval of the British security services. CBS News reported that it has long been rumored that her work as an anti-land mine campaigner brought her to the attention of the CIA. The Observer said the revelations raise fresh questions over transatlantic agreements on intelligence sharing. The transcripts of the phone calls reportedly did not contain any material that might help explain her death.
