Police investigating the murder of the Alps, now a British car pursued the suspected.<\/h1>\n

Detectives are looking for a black 4×4 with British number plates Mitsubishi, which was seen driving on the French A39 near the scene of the attack on September 5.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, seven-year-old Zainab al Hilli, whose parents and grandmother were were gunned down in the shooting spree near Lake Annecy, is returning to the UK from France.<\/p>\n

The girl was placed in a medically induced coma after she was shot in the shoulder and badly beaten in the massacre which killed her three relatives last week.<\/p>\n

The child, who is seen as one of the key witnesses in the case, left hospital at about 8.30am, accompanied by British police.<\/p>\n

Zainab’s state of health is understood to have improved in recent days, allowing her to travel back to the UK.<\/p>\n

Her departure follows that of her younger sister, Zeena, who returned to the UK last week after escaping the brutal attack unscathed.<\/p>\n

The four-year-old survived by cowering under her mother’s skirts but she was only discovered eight hours after the killings.<\/p>\n

The bodies of Saad al Hilli, 50, his dentist wife Iqbal, 47, and her elderly mother were discovered in their family’s BMW in a remote car park near Lake Annecy at around 4pm on September 5.<\/p>\n

Next to the vehicle lay the body of Sylvain Mollier, 45, a French cyclist who apparently stumbled across the attack.<\/p>\n

Another cyclist – the first to arrive at the scene – has described how he spotted Zainab “stumbling” around, bleeding and “moaning” near the car.<\/p>\n

Brett Martin, 53, likened the carnage to a set from TV crime series CSI: Miami.<\/p>\n

Speaking for the first time yesterday, the former RAF pilot from Sussex, said he biked to the top of a hill in the Combe d’Ire forest, near Chevaline, only to find himself faced with a bloodbath.<\/p>\n

“As I got a little bit closer, a very young child stumbled out on to the road and at first I thought she was actually just playing with her sibling because she sort of looked, from a distance, as if she was falling over, larking about like a child would,” he told the BBC.<\/p>\n

“However, as I approached her it was obvious that she was quite badly injured and there was a lot of blood on her.<\/p>\n

“As I got even closer, I then saw the car with its engine revving and its wheels spinning. It seemed at that moment in time like there had been a terrible car accident.”<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
