THE brother of a British man murdered with his family in the Alps has accused French police of a cover-up.
Zaid al-Hilli says the family was just in the wrong place at the wrong time when they were killed in September 2012.

His brother, Saad, 50, Saad’s wife Iqbal, 47, and mother-in-law Suhaila al-Allaf, 74, from Claygate, Surrey, were shot dead in their BMW.
But Zaid, 62, has backed suggestions that French cyclist Sylvain Mollier, 45, who also died, was the real target.
He told The Sun on Sunday he said: “The French authorities tried to hide the truth.
"They are culpable in it.
“I think they know who was behind it but there’s some influential people behind Mollier.
"If there’s no resolution, I can’t see how one can get over it.”
