Investigation started into deadly superyacht flipping over near Sicily.
Reading
An investigation has been opened in Italy after a yacht sank, killing seven people. The investigation will look into possible charges of shipwreck and manslaughter.
The prosecutor is looking at everyone who might be responsible, like the captain and the company that made the yacht. He says that it seems likely that crimes were committed, but they need more time to investigate.
One big question is why the yacht sank so quickly, especially since another boat nearby was fine. Officials think maybe a sudden, strong wind from a thunderstorm hit the yacht.
Investigators also want to know why almost all the crew survived, but many passengers didn't. It seems the passengers were in cabins where some air was left, but they need to find out if anyone warned them.
The yacht will be brought up from the sea floor to help with the investigation, but that will take a long time. The owners of the yacht will have to pay for it to be recovered.
