"On the first anniversary of Dad's death, we commissioned our own independent report. We hired a world expert on lift accident reconstructions and asked him to review OOCL's report and to visit the ship.
That autumn we had what we believed was a massive breakthrough. Our expert had completed his report and concluded: 'I am firmly of the view that this incident is likely to have been caused by human intervention and have seen no evidence to suggest that the lift system was faulty but clearly the door lock receptor has been subjected to an unauthorised out-of-design modification.'
His report showed two things. First, that the housing for a mechanical bolt had been tampered with. We still don't know whether that was done before Dad's accident and contributed to it, or afterwards to cover something up.
Second, it suggested that a circuit bridge had been installed in the control cabinet. A circuit bridge is used by lift engineers to carry out repairs: it deceives the system into thinking the lift is on a particular floor so they can gain access to the car and the shaft at will.
We concluded from this that the mechanical bolt wasn't working properly, repairs were under way and a circuit bridge was installed. While all the other guests at the reception were safely ushered up and down by people who knew about the defect, Dad, the last to leave, was overlooked.
Armed with this information, we met OOCL in November 2004, only our second-ever meeting, and put our expert's report to the company. Its officials rejected it.
We were stunned."
We had never believed our father's death to be sinister, but the actions of someone, somewhere, killed him. Yet there was no sense of accountability.
