Mike Lynch, a 59-year-old entrepreneur and founder of Autonomy Corporation, is missing after a superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily. He was recently acquitted in the US of $11 billion fraud charges. According to reports, Lynch was on the 56-meter yacht with his wife Angela Bacares, who was among the 15 people rescued. The incident occurred after a freak tornado struck the area, causing the yacht to sink. One person has been confirmed dead, and six others, including four British tourists, are still missing.
