Italian prosecutors have opened an investigation into a tragic shipwreck and multiple manslaughter case after a superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily, resulting in the deaths of seven individuals, including British tech entrepreneur Mike Lynch and his daughter. The prosecutor in Termini Imerese confirmed that the investigation is underway, with all potential responsible parties being considered, including the captain, crew, manufacturer, and others. The focus is on determining how a supposedly “unsinkable” yacht capsized during a storm, while nearby boats were unaffected. The bodies of the victims were discovered in a specific area of the yacht, indicating they may have sought shelter in the cabins. The investigation will also look into whether passengers were alerted to the danger and why some crew members survived while others perished.
