Tech tycoon, defense attorney, and Morgan Stanley banker among those missing in freak yacht sinking
SUMMARY
A superyacht sank off the Sicilian coast during a storm, leaving six passengers missing, including British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and key members of his inner circle. Lynch, recently acquitted in a U.S. fraud case, was reportedly celebrating his legal victory aboard the yacht. The missing include Lynch's daughter Hannah, his U.S. attorney Christopher Morvillo and his wife, and Jonathan Bloomer, chairman of Morgan Stanley's London-based investment banking subsidiary, and his wife. In a tragic coincidence, Stephen Chamberlain, another former Autonomy executive acquitted with Lynch, was fatally struck by a car days before the incident. The search for the missing passengers continues, with authorities and their families anxiously awaiting further news.
