Former bodyguard Trevor Rees said today he felt pressured by boss Mohamed al-Fayed to remember details of the car crash that killed his son Dodi and Princess Diana.
Mr Rees was the sole survivor of the crash in Paris in August 1997 that also killed chauffeur Henri Paul. British and French police investigations have concluded the driver was drunk.
The former bodyguard, who suffered facial injuries in the crash, told the inquest into Dodi and Diana's deaths that while recuperating: "I felt the pressure to remember what had occurred.
"The fact that I could not frustrated myself and also obviously frustrated Mr al-Fayed," Mr Rees told the court, concluding two days of testimony.
Mr Rees said in his meetings with Mr Fayed, the owner of the London store Harrods would suggest possibilities and "I would reply 'That's a possibility'".
He said he specifically remembered Mr Fayed asking him if there was a flash in the tunnel which caused the accident. "I would say 'That is a possibility'," Mr Rees added.
Mr Rees told the inquest: "I did not feel comfortable being in his presence at that time. He was obviously a very upset man."
Mohamed al-Fayed says he believes that a blinding flash of light from a stun gun caused the chauffeur to lose control and crash at speed in the road tunnel. He alleges that his son and Diana were killed by British agents on the orders of Prince Philip.
