Italian authorities have opened an investigation into the seven deaths from the tragic sinking of Bayesian, a 56-metre luxury superyacht, off the coast of Sicily.
The Italian prosecutor’s office has opened a manslaughter investigation into how the supposedly “unsinkable” superyacht Bayesian sank off the coast of Sicily and claimed seven lives.
Seven people were killed and 15 people were rescued after the $27 million yacht sank in less than one minute. Mr Cartosio said on Saturday: “We have opened a case against unknown persons with the hypothesis of a charge of negligent shipwreck and manslaughter.” The sinking of Bayesian has baffled naval experts who have said the boat should have weathered the storm.
