Professional hit in the Alps - why?

Saddam Hussain gave £840,000 to the family of the British engineer who was murdered with his wife in the Alps, it was claimed last night.

The former Iraqi dictator is said to have deposited the sum in a Swiss bank account in the name of Saad Al-Hilli's father.

The claim, which apparently originated with German intelligence, adds a sensational twist to the baffling case.

Of course this still does not explain, why the family was slaughtered, and by whom.
