The unsolved murder of a British family in the French Alps is being transferred to a specialist cold case review unit after a UK expert concluded the attack was completely random.
Saad al-Hilli, 50, his wife, Iqbal, 47, and his mother-in-law, Suhaila al-Allaf, 74, were all killed in their BMW car in September 2012 in a case that has baffled detectives in France.
The couple’s daughters, Zeena, 4, and Zainab, 7, both survived the attack in which Sylvain Mollier, a French cyclist, was also killed.
