Lake Annecy Gun Linked to Unsolved 2012 Murder of British Family in French Alps The discovery of a Luger pistol at the bottom of Lake Annecy, which bears similarities to the weapon used in the infamous 2012 murders of a British Iraqi family and a French cyclist in the French Alps, has reignited interest in this cold case.
The incident has been shrouded in mystery for over a decade, with numerous investigations and theories emerging but ultimately leading nowhere.
The initial theory that linked the family's background to their murder was based on Saad al Hilli's past work as an engineer on sensitive topics.
