THE bodies of four missing Italian tourists have been located by an elite task force in the Maldives.
Local authorities resumed the perilous mission to find the missing divers in “shark cave” this morning after search efforts were hampered by bad weather.
A group of five Italian scuba divers on a university research trip went missing while exploring a cave at a depth of about 160ft on Thursday morning.
Three Finnish divers were deployed to start a fresh search on Monday.
Sami Paakkarinen, Jenni Westerlund, and Patrik Grönqvist arrived on Sunday in the paradise archipelago to help local authorities.
They located the remaining four bodies after Maldivian authorities recovered one of them last weekend, Italy’s foreign ministry said.
The four missing holidaymakers were Monica Montefalcone, her daughter Giorgia Sommacal, Muriel Oddenino, and Federico Gualtieri.
