If Kye Gbangbola and Nicole Lawler moved in your house, on the banks of the River Thames in Surrey, it looked like the perfect place to raise A Family . Sixteen years later, it stands as a reminder to Zane , The Son she lost during her fight for the replies, goes on about what caused his death.

At 7. In February 2014, Mr Gbangbola spent the evening room to work up in his work, where he wrote the environmental protection Agency called for an urgent meeting on the effects of several weeks of flooding that had The Cellar of The House under the water.

Ms Lawler and Zane watched the winter Olympics opening ceremony, and later she wore her seven-year-old Son to bed. But not long after, Ms Lawler, who was acutely ill himself, found him unconscious, while his Father -who was left paralyzed critically ill in another room.

Ms Lawler has described how her Son died in her arms and as she held him "until his little Finger mine froze around".

the couple, who believe that the investigation in the death of her Son , came to the conclusion in September 2016, was in error. Zane 's death was attributed by The Coroner to carbon monoxide poisoning from a petrol-powered pump, which by the pair of clear, high water - But they are not in use.

you think of a former landfill site behind their Home in Chertsey was The Source of the hydrogen-cyanide gas, which was pushed upwards and out of the earth, by the "piston effect" of the swollen river, raising the water table underground, and it was the gas that killed Zane .

The Fire Department found high concentrations of hydrocyanic acid on the property, according to The Fire brigade Union (FBU), the "serious concerns" about how the investigation was carried out.

Still not able to sell The House , the couple, staying there, constantly reminded of The Absence of her Son .

has reached A petition for an independent panel inquiry, More Than 108,000 signatures

they moved into the four-bedroom house 10 Years earlier. Surrounded by meadows, meadows, The House , looked at the boats sailing on The River and the 18Th Century stone arches of Chertsey Bridge . It is also backed up to a field with a lake and grazing horses.

they were in the vicinity of London and the landscape of the well-to-do Surrey. The location seemed idyllic.

When the couple bought the property, she knew, it was believed, in a flood-risk area, But Mr Gbangbola, a European buildings, expert,, it was a risk which could be managed and insured.

Zane , born on 21. October 2006. When he was older, Ms Lawler - an environmental expert who worked on the London 2012 sustainability strategy was able to drop her Son at school, flying in the vicinity of Heathrow to visit the Netherlands, a business meeting and back Home , dinner and bed.

Zane would race on the boardwalk and explore Chertsey Meads, where he discovered a BMX track and an ACE on his bike was. Around The Corner Dumsey Meadow, to be at Home "wishing tree", to find where his mother hid treasures for him.

Zane 's parents (left) and activists gathered in Westminster at the beginning of this month,

If Mr Gbangbola and Ms Lawler bought The House , She Said , found no organic searches, that the area was behind it, a former landfill, and that this information only came to light after her Son had died.

they have in The Past Six Years , the information, which they say has not researched or will be taken to be known in the investigation, and the one you want, before an independent panel of enquiry to collect.

This includes the existence of a Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (DERA) military tank test facility, identified as a former industrial site.

A former Ministry of Defence (Mod ) engineer, the, asked, anonymous, to remain, has told the BBC he believes that the sub-contractors working for the tank research institution, the Five Miles from Home , used to dump waste chemicals into the local gravel pits, which is also behind Zane 's house.

He said these chemicals were coatings by products of anti-rust and anti-corrosion tank, and he claimed that they could produce cyanide. They'd been in barrels that rusted and corroded over The Years , so that the chemicals seep into the ground, he claims.

The BBC has agreed to protect his identity as a former Mod -worker, But did not check, therefore, able to the claims.

February 2014 saw 14 severe flood warnings on the Thames before The River burst its banks, the

recently, it emerged during a memorial service for Zane , to be held in The House of Lords that.

To this event, Manchester's Labour mayor Andy Burnham said: "I want The Truth about Zane . I don't think we have The Truth about what happened to this beautiful Little Boy .

"There are many authorities were involved," the former health Minister said. "Porton was Down involved. One of these come up in the investigation? No it's not. So, the whole story was not clearly told in the investigation, and it needs to be. "

In his report on the completion of the judicial inquiry, the preliminary investigation, Richard Travers, an expert said quoted, high concentrations of hydrocyanic acid were rare, and all in connection with the former gasworks, while a Council officer said there had been dirt, there are no significant environmental incidents on The Land behind Zane 's house since the 1950s.

But another report, according to The Coroner did confirm that the illegal tipping could have taken place, and another expert, geo-ecologist Gavin Roberts, told the inquest it was possible the high-water had been held back, triggered a one-time discharge of Hydrogen Cyanide and wore it in The Basement of The House .

The view is not in the area of military and defence history.

In December, the FBU General Secretary , Matt Wrack , wrote The Family : "Our members took on that fateful day in the year 2014 and found Hydrogen Cyanide in your Home . "

He said there were "worrying gaps in The Evidence ", and added: "The unregulated landfill seems to have adjacent to your house, released the nerve gas and it must now be an independent investigation, so that these can be considered, and those responsible must be held accountable. "
