Yacht tragedy captain in manslaughter probe

THE captain of the superyacht that sank in a tornado killing seven people has been grilled twice as part of a probe which could result in manslaughter or even homicide charges.

James Cutfield was questioned for two hours on Sunday, the second time he has been quizzed in a week.

The New Zealand-born skipper was in charge of the £30million Bayesian when it was battered by a tornado off Porticello in Sicily and sank.

British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter Hannah were among those who drowned.
