Princess Diana's brother accused the interview Martin Bashir of being involved in 'yellow journalism'

Charles Spencer, Princess Diana's brother, has blasted BBC over fake documents that were created just to bag an interview with his sister, 25 years back.

The 9th Earl Spencer penned a charged letter against the channel and demanded an inquiry into the case over a “whitewashed” letter in regards to the fake bank documents that were shown to him.

He lambasted the organization’s “sheer dishonesty” and accused the interview Martin Bashir of being involved in “yellow journalism.”

Diana’s Panorama interview in 1996 had been quite explosive as she made several startling claims about her life in the royal family.

Back in September, for the first time ever, BBC had confessed Charles Spencer was shown bank statements by Martin Bashir that had been created by the graphic designer of the firm after he was approached by him in an attempt to bag an interview with Princess Diana.

This was in stark contrast with the internal probe that was done by BBC on Bashir in 1996 which found out that he hadn't used fake documents to get the interview.
