3 People \'found shot dead in car in Corsica\'

Three people were found shot dead Tuesday in a car on the French Mediterranean island of Corsica, a source close to the inquiry into their killings said. The bodies were found in a village near the town of Corte in the north of the island, which has suffered three decades of low-level violence by separatists opposed to French rule. A dozen men have been shot dead in Corsica since the start of the year. Police say many of them were victims of score-settling in ongoing feuds. The latest deaths come less than a week after a British-Iraqi family was gunned down in the French Alps. Saad al-Hilli, his wife Iqbal and her mother were found dead in their car in a forest car park near the village of Chevaline last Wednesday. A passing French cyclist was also killed. The Hillis\'s daughter Zainab, aged seven, was seriously wounded and her four-year-old sister Zeena escaped by hiding under her dead mother\'s skirts.
