![]() ![]() > Alps murder witness: 'It was like a scene from a film' He later accused French police of taking part in a cover-up. Zaid himself was briefly detained by Surrey police in 2013 as part of the French investigation but subsequently released for lack of evidence. He added: "They made claims against the family which they couldn't prove." “The initial investigation (by French investigators) has been a total failure." "There hasn't been any progress in the case,” he said. Zaid al-Hilli, the victim’s brother, told the BBC this week that he was frustrated at the French authorities’ failure to find out what happened to his brother and his family. Investigators have said they thought Mollier, who had no apparent link to the British-Iraqi family, arrived on the scene as the attack was under way and was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Zeena hid for hours under her dead mother’s skirt in the family car but escaped injury. The al-Hilli daughters - Zainab, 7, and Zeena, 4 - survived the attack, although Zainab was shot in the shoulder and severely beaten, suffering skull fractures. Saad al-Hilli, 50, his wife Iqbal, 47, and her 74-year-old mother all died at the scene of the Septemattack.
