The first post-mortem examinations on two victims of the Bayesian superyacht sinking have been carried out.<\/p>\n

Seven people died when the luxury boat, owned by British tech tycoon Mike Lynch, capsized off the coast of Sicily<\/a><\/strong>, Italy, after being hit by a sudden, violent storm in the early hours of 19 August.<\/p>\n

US lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife Neda, the first victims to undergo a post-mortem, were found to have drowned.<\/p>\n

Mr Morvillo was in Mr Lynch’s legal team in a fraud case involving the 2011 sale of Autonomy to Hewlett Packard in a $11bn (\u00a38.3bn) deal.<\/p>\n

The British entrepreneur, 59, who co-founded Autonomy, was acquitted in June and he had organised the yacht trip to celebrate his legal victory.<\/p>\n

The bodies of six of the victims, including Mr Lynch, his 18-year-old daughter Hannah, and passengers Jonathan and Judy Bloomer, were discovered in the wreck during a five-day search operation by divers.<\/p>\n

The yacht’s chef Recaldo Thomas was found dead near the boat the day after the disaster<\/strong><\/a> happened.<\/p>\n

Mr Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, survived the sinking, along with 14 other people.<\/p>\n
