The body of tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch has been recovered from the wreckage of a sunken superyacht off the coast of Italy after rescuers said the final person still missing is a woman.
The Italian coast guard said the body of billionaire tech mogul Mike Lynch was among the five bodies recovered from the luxury superyacht that sank off the coast of Sicily earlier this week. The final person that divers are still searching for as of Thursday is a woman.
Included among the six missing people were Lynch, his 18-year-old daughter Hannah, Christopher Morvillo, an American lawyer with Clifford Chance who defended Lynch in the fraud case, and Morgan Stanley International chairman Jonathan Bloomer, who testified in Lynch’s defense. Morvillo’s wife, Neda, and Bloomer’s wife, Judy, were also among the missing. Divers have been searching for the missing in the hull of the Bayesian, which now rests on the seabed 164 feet underwater.
Investigators are seeking to learn why the superyacht sank so quickly. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
