Divers were confirmed as finding two bodies earlier on Wednesday, despite hopes the six missing could still be alive due to air pockets.
The bodies of two people found in the sunken wreckage of a luxury yacht have been confirmed as British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and his daughter Hannah.
Mr Lynch, who founded software giant Autonomy in 1996, was cleared in June of conducting a massive fraud relating to the $11billion sale to US company Hewlett Packard. The boat trip was a celebration of his acquittal. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
