Prosecutors probe captain of superyacht that sank off Sicily, Italian media say
ROME (AP) - Prosecutors in Italy have placed under investigation the captain of a superyacht that sank during a storm off Sicily last week, killing seven people, Italian media reported Monday.
James Cutfield, a 51-year old New Zealand national, is being investigated for possible manslaughter and culpable shipwreck, Italian dailies reported.
Under Italian laws, being under investigation doesn't imply being guilty and doesn't necessarily lead to criminal charges.
Prosecutors in Termini Imerese didn't reply to calls to confirm the reports.
