Billionaire Mike Lynch, whose yacht 'Bayesian' sank off the coast of Sicily, had contacts with intelligence services. His cybersecurity company 'Darktrace' was involved in the Ukraine war, and his former business partner died in a car accident shortly before the accident.

The sinking of the yacht is believed to be caused by damage, and the investigation is focusing on Captain James Cutfield. The yacht sank unexpectedly quickly, leading experts to suspect damage as the cause.

The investigation is also looking into the possibility of manslaughter charges, and the search for the last missing person, Lynch's daughter, continues. The yacht tragedy has raised questions about crew errors, open hatches, and underestimated weather conditions.

The salvage of the yacht is estimated to cost up to 15 million euros and take 6-8 weeks. The sinking has shocked the tech and business world and has led to tributes being paid to the victims.

The incident has captured international attention and highlights the dangers of sailing in extreme weather conditions.
