The coroner could suggest that the police investigate any perjury Fayed might be suspected of indulging in, but the coroner cannot recommend he stand trial. The only agency that can send someone to trial is the CPS (Criminal Prosecution Service) and that could only be done on evidence provided by an investigation.

If perjury charges work in Britain like they work in the US, they are only brought about when the authorities want to get someone for something and they can't get them on the original charges.
We have a perjury trial going on for Barry Bonds, a baseball player, who a lot of people believe did steroids and are angry at him that he won the home run title, but the steroids charge is impossible to prove. So the authorities found evidence to charge him with perjury and that's what they are doing.
I think the Royal Family would rather just have al-Fayed humiliated in this trial and then forgotten.

I agree. I doubt they would want to provide still another stage for his continuing performance.

Yes, exactly. A perjury trial would just remind everyone of what he has said.

Al-Fayed takes centre stage at Diana inquest - Yahoo! News UK
------
I had just the feeling that if Diana had survived but that Dodi had died, Fayed would have found a way to blame her for his death. He hates the RF and everything connected to them. Such a sad character ...

According to the Daily Mail (aka the Skydragon Times  ) Fayed's case has been dismissed by the European Court.
European Court throws out Al Fayed's Diana plot claims | the Daily Mail
"The Mail on Sunday has learned that his conspiracy theory, rejected by a succession of official inquiries, has now been dismissed by the European Court of Human Rights after a five-year probe."
and
"But judges sitting in Strasbourg said his claim was "manifestly ill-founded" and concluded that the deaths were accidental."

Mohamed al Fayed has set out in court his claims that his son Dodi, and Diana, Princess of Wales were murdered, and he called the Royals "that Dracula family".
Diana Inquest: Mohamed Al Fayed To Give Evidence |Sky News|UK News
Nazi Philip wanted Diana dead, Fayed tells inquest | UK news | guardian.co.uk
From Fayeds own lips -
"Diana told me on the telephone that she was pregnant," he told the inquest. "I was the only person that they told."
"They told me they were engaged and would announce their engagement on Monday morning. She would speak to her sons when she returned from Paris.
If he was the only person that was told of the pregnancy or engagement, what is his reason for them being killed?

I bet this is something personal, that Philip nubed Fayed at least on one occasion. What Fayed said about the prince is so stupid but vindictive - that his family name of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Gluecksburg sounds like Frankenstein etc... I mean, it is okay that Fayed does not speak German but to assume because of this lack in his education that Philip is a Nazi... I doubt Fayed knows what it means to be a Nazi. And BTW - Philip and his family came from Denmark, not really Germany, because this part of Schleswig-Holstein became Danish in a time when Germany as a state or nation did not yet exist.
But it is fun readin the transcript and to get a clear idea how crazy and obsessed Fayed in fact is - in his own words. Very traitorous.

The man just goes too far, in my opinion!

It's because of the wild accusations that I can't feel very sorry for him. One can deeply and sincerely mourn a loved one without losing touch with reality reason and common sense. I feel sorry for all those he's accused, sans evidence, of conspiracy collusion and lies, which after reading the transcript from today seems to include everyone except himself.

Over the last ten years this man wasn´t too sad to make a lot of money of with the Dodi and Diana story... 
I agree that it´s extremly hard and tragic to lose a child, but that isn´t entitled to tell (ten years after the accident) these incredible lies and insults.
After reading about his accusations and the terms he used when he spoke about members of the Royal Family, in my opinion Al Fayed is sick or mad.

I also believe Ken Wharfe knows a few more things than asked to reveal too. When this inquest makes out that Diana had no "nutters", quacks or stalkerazzi targeting her, then a mere accident doesn't look like just a mere accident, imo.
It is sad to hear about Paul's wife, Maria, supposedly leaving him for another man.

One thing that has come out of the inquest so far is that Fayed has theories and accusations to bring forth but no evidence to back them up. Today when asked where and what his evidence was he basically admitted he hadn't been able to obtain any by stumbling around the issue and challenging the Coroner to find it for him. Geez.
