Autopsies reveal causes of death of two superyacht passengers killed when £30million Mike Lynch vessel sank in a thunderstorm off Sicily coast as authorities continue criminal probe into the tragedy

Autopsies have been carried out on two victims who drowned when the super yacht Bayesian sank last month in a freak storm with the loss of seven lives.

Tech billionaire Mike Lynch, 59, and his daughter Hannah, 18, who was due to start at Oxford University later this month were among those who died.

Mr Lynch’s wife Angela Bacares, Hannah’s mother, survived along with 14 others after the £30 million vessel sank off the coast of the Italian island of Sicily at Porticello near Palermo on August 19.

The first autopsies were carried out on lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife Neda, and confirmed that they drowned, sources said on Monday.

There were ‘no signs’ of any other injuries and autopsies on the other victims will continue for the rest of the week alongside the judicial investigation.
