"Our love for Zane keeps us going." emotional scenes outside woking coroner's court

8/9/2016

10 Comments

 
Read Zane's parents statement in full:
“We are profoundly concerned by the conduct, the content and the outcome of Zane’s inquest.
“Our concern regarding the rejection of our application for legal aid, clear deficiencies in the administration of evidence and given the contested circumstances, the failure to have that evidence heard before a jury.
“This extends beyond our case and is a matter of public concern. We requested legal aid and an Article 2 inquest with a jury and both were rejected.

“Zane’s inquest was deficient legally and evidentially.

“We applied for full disclosure and this was rejected. The inquest satisfied neither our [interest] nor the public interest and at the discretion of the coroner, the primary concerns were not addressed and significant evidence not given to us - nor examined.

“We were also dependant on public donations to gain legal representation and present our case while the authorities had considerable resources. This was a significant failure in achieving equality of arms.

“As a consequence, we requested an independent panel of inquiry.
“The precedent being the Hillsborough independent panel to review all documentation from all interested parties, specify witnesses not called to this inquest and to make recommendations accordingly.

“Only when all of the available evidence is assessed by a panel with the collective expertise to provide a thorough and open examination of all of the available material and to make informed recommendations will we consider that the state has acted in the best interests and therefore in the public interest.

“We expect to be consulted on the membership of such a panel.

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank all members of the public who have supported us in our quest for justice for Zane.

“At the top of this was a deeply loved boy. A very special little boy. The world is a much poorer place without Zane.

“Our love for Zane keeps us going and while we have breath in our bodies, we fight to expose the inconvenient truth.”

Nicole Lawler and Kye Gbangbola have been brave and fearless in their quest for the truth about Zane to come out. Their love for their very special child and their deep concern that no other parents should ever have to suffer what they have suffered has inspired me and many, many others. They are right to call for a full public inquiry. This is a matter of wide public concern. The North Surrey Green Party, of whom I am the coordinator, wholeheartedly support the call and will stand firm with Kye and Nicole until the truth is out and justice is done.

I'm writing from Ohio USA. I have relatives in Staines and heard about your tragedy last time I was there. You've suffered a most unfair injustice and please remember, David and Goliath! You can never, ever give up in the face of uncaring authority. We'll keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so saddened at the inadequate process and outcome that has been decided through the Woking coroners court. Also, that it is so difficult to uphold truth and justice in this country. It is however inspiring that there are people of integrity like Nicole and Kye who will not give up until the truth is disclosed and justice is done.
This is indeed a matter of public concern and I'm sure there are many members of the public who are willing to continue to support them all the way to this end, including myself.

Keep going Nicole and Kye - truth is more powerful than lies and you will prevail and overcome every lie that tries to stand in your way. I am so sorry that Zane died when he should not have and I know his memory will be ultimately honoured in the way he deserves it to be.

Perhaps an Article 2 complaint to the European Court OF hUMAN rIGHTS IS THE WAY AHEAD

Our hearts go out to you, totally sad to read this, I can't believe what I read. I have never met you or your family, but it haunts me that I once passed along the river and saw you playing outside with your little boy with a hose pipe I remembered seeing you and still see that picture when I read this sorrowful story . x

Why don't you enlist the help of the Hillsborough families who must all be experts at this sort of struggle by now ?

I'm a member of the public, and I'd like a full disclosure so that I could make my own mind up. I don't know the parents, I don't know how well they know the subject areas upon which the validity of their argument hinges, but I believe in the wider public, there are plenty impartial persons who surely do. Perhaps if made public, such people might be able to work together, for the public good, to consider the claims at hand and the evidence to determine the truth. All the family wants is the truth, but it takes the brains of people who know the full (and extended) contexts of the situation, to really call a judgement. As far as I can tell, this is something they have been denied and certainly as a member of the public, I too feel disappointed.
