Mystery over deaths of five divers in Maldives

Investigators in the Maldives are trying to work out how five experienced divers died in the same spot at the same time.

The five Italian divers became trapped in a sea cave at a depth of about 50-60m off the island of Alimathaa in an atoll called Vaavu.

They had arrived at the dive site on board a boat called the Duke of York, which runs dive trips in the Maldives.
