Freelander 2 won't start

Hey guys.
My 2010 freelander 2 td4 is giving me an hard time.
About an week ago i drove her and the auxiliary belt(alternator belt) broke. Luckily it happened only about an mile from home. But when it happend the car jerked and had no power at all.
So i replaced the belt and thought it would start. But i wasn't that Luckily. I did change the crank sensor i even replaced the high pressure fuel pump but still nothing and i did use the correct method to fit and bleed the high pressure fuel pump. So please any advice will surely be appreciated

So did the car continue to run after the auxiliary belt snapped? If so, no real ideas to help. If the car stopped running at the same time, could be that is a deeper engine problem, perhaps the cam belt failing causing the engine to lock/ stop suddenly, an the aux belt snapping is a secondary failing due to the shock load?
I am sure others will be along to help with other ideas. Good luck.

Does anyone know if it's easy to see the cambelt without major dismantling? On some Peugeot engines (which is what's in the FL2) you can just unclip a plastic cover and see the state of the belt. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

Check the camshaft sensor. And its wiring. It is used only when starting and then ignored.
But if it doesn't work properly, once the engine was shutdown, it wont start again, so the situation is consistent with what you are telling us.
It is on top of the engine, on the left side.
Maybe it was damaged or its wiring damaged when the belt snapped...
