Rare pistol ‘similar to the type used to kill a British family in the French Alps’ is found at the bottom of a nearby lake – 14 years on

A rare pistol of the same type used to brutally gun down a British family on holiday in the French Alps 14 years ago has been found at the bottom of a nearby lake.

Saad Al–Hilli, 50, an Iraq–born satellite engineer from Surrey, was shot dead at the wheel of his BMW on a remote mountain road near Lake Annecy in 2012.

His wife Iqbal, 47, her mother Suhaila, 74, and local cyclist Sylvain Mollier, 45, were also killed in a hail of bullets during the incident, which sent shockwaves throughout Europe.

Hand–grip fragments of a rare Luger PO6/29, Parabellum 7.65, were found
