A verdict is due in the trial of three French paparazzi accused of breaching the country's strict privacy rules by photographing Princess Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Al Fayed on the night of their fatal car-crash six years ago.
In last month's trial the state prosecutor asked the judge to hand down unspecified suspended prison terms on Jacques Langevin, Christian Martinez and Fabrice Chassery. The maximum penalty they face is a year in prison and a fine of 45,000 euros (53,600 dollars).
The three were among the eight paparazzi and one dispatch rider who followed Diana and Dodi on the night of August 31 1997, when the pair were killed in a crash in a Paris underpass along with their limousine driver Henri Paul.
