The bodies of two children killed by carbon monoxide poisoning in their

hotel bungalow in Corfu last week have begun their journey back to
Britain.

Coffins bearing the bodies of Christianne and Robert Shepherd, aged 7
and 6 respectively, were loaded onto a Thomas Cook passenger aircraft
at Corfu airport today for the three-and a half hour flight back to
Manchester.

Their mother, Sharon Wood, boarded the jet soon afterwards with her
husband, Paul, followed by dozens of British holidaymakers. The
children's father, Neil Shepherd, remains seriously ill in hospital in
Corfu with his girlfriend, Ruth Beatson, who was also poisoned by a
leaking boiler during Wednesday night last week.

Christianne and Robert, known as Christie and Bobby, were found dead by

a maid at the Louis Corcyra Beach Hotel on the island’s Gouvia Bay
last Thursday morning, their father and Ms Beatson unconscious beside
them. Mr Shepherd and his partner spent two days in intensive care but
both are expected to make a full recovery.

Today, Greek court officials said prosecutors were expected to file
charges of negligent manslaughter against those responsible for the
installation and upkeep of the faulty gas-fired water boiler blamed for

the carbon monoxide leak.

"The prosecutor will file the charges on Thursday or Friday at the
latest," a court official on Corfu told the Reuters news agency. "He is

currently collecting all the evidence to complete the dossier."

Although a final toxicological report is not expected for two weeks,
coroners have confirmed that the Shepherds and Ms Beatson suffered gas
poisoning:

"A large quantity of carbon monoxide was found in their systems," said
Theodore Vougiouklakis, a pathologist. "The toxicological analysis
performed at the University of Ioannina forensic laboratory on the
blood of the two victims showed that the cause of death was carbon
monoxide intoxication."

A maintenance worker at the hotel has admitted that he knew that the
boiler had been malfunctioning. Petros Stoyannos told The Sun
newspaper: "I knew the boiler had a problem. I just didn’t have time
to fix it. How are we to know if things break down in the evening?"

A British couple, Kathy and Andrew Pallant from Leighton Buzzard,
Bedfordshire, have claimed that they, too, were poisoned while staying
in the same bungalow earlier this month, and spent three days
recovering in a Corfu clinic before returning to Britain.

A hole in the bungalow wall, left after the installation of an
air-conditioning system, allowed fumes to seep into the room from the
boiler outside.

The hotel management said today that new water boilers had been
installed two years ago and were checked annually. "We are stunned by
the tragic event that occurred at our hotel. We will cooperate fully
with the authorities investigating this tragic incident in order to
determine the exact causes."

LONDON, England (Reuters) -- Post-mortems on two British children found
dead in their Corfu hotel from suspected poisoning will be carried out
later on Friday.

A Greek official told Reuters the results of final tests on the bodies
of 6-year-old Robert and his 7-year-old sister, Christianne would be
issued later in the day.

Early indications suggest the cause of death may have been poisoning,
possibly by a gas leak.

The children's father, Neil Shepherd and his partner, 26-year-old Ruth
Beatson, remain in critical condition in a local hospital after they
were discovered on Thursday in a coma alongside the youngsters.

The four vacationers, on a half-term break, were found by a maid at
their four-star, beachfront hotel on the Ionian Sea island.

British media reported the children's mother had flown to Corfu after
being told of the deaths.

The island's acting coroner, Stefanos Gasteratos has said the children
died some eight to 10 hours before they were found by the cleaner at the
Louis Corcyra Beach hotel.

Police said they had not ruled out the possibility that the family had
consumed poisonous mushrooms at a local restaurant.

A source close to the hotel company noted that none of the other 500
guests had been taken ill.

"There was no sign of forced entry into the room nor was there a "do not
disturb sign" hanging on the door," the source added.

A receptionist at the hotel, located on the eastern coast of the island
on Gouvia Bay some eight km (five miles) northwest of the town of Corfu,
said the family had checked in on Oct. 23 and that the hotel would close
for the season on Oct. 31.

"They had not caused any problems during their stay," the receptionist,
who declined to be named, told Reuters.

This is the third criminal investigation into an incident involving
British tourists in Greece in the past few months.

In August, a Briton was charged with murder after jumping from a hotel
balcony in Crete holding his two children and killing one of them in the
fall.

Earlier this month, another British tourist was charged with attempted
murder after his girlfriend was severely injured in a fall from a hotel
balcony on the island.
