In 1999 the defence secretary chief of staff Tobert Tyrer reviewed at Mohammed Al-fayed's request the DOD documents and reported that they bore no relations to Diana's death. In 2000 Al-Fayed made a desperate move, he tried, through the Columbia district court to obtain the. CIA, national security agency, defence intelligence agency, department of defence, department of justice, department of state, FBI, executive office of united state attorneys, INS and secret service records pertaining to the deaths of Diana and Dodi. He got no where and then offered $1 million for reliable information. In 2006 the reports in the British press claimed that the united states government agencies were listening to her phone calls; the eavesdropping was right up to her death, including calls from the ritz hotel, where she was staying that night. The CIA and secret service officials said it never targeted Diana for eavesdropping, but indicated her name was mentioned in calls by other people it was monitoring. Officials said that the NSA could have accidentally picked up telephone intercepts of Diana while targeting someone else, such as another Ritz guest.
