Prosecutors in Rome have opened a culpable homicide investigation into the tragedy that claimed the lives of five Italian divers in the Maldives.
The case, believed to be the worst single diving accident in the island country’s history, still presents many unanswered questions, with diving experts sharing their theories on what may have caused the group never to resurface.
The Maldives government has also announced a probe into the tragedy that claimed the lives of diving instructor Gianluca Benedetti, 42, Monica Montefalcone, 52; Giorgia Sommacal, 22; Muriel Oddenino, 31; and Federico Gualtieri, 31.
