It has been reported in France that maritime police are looking into whether the offences of involuntary homicide, fleeing the scene of an accident and failing to assist persons in danger have been committed.
Five men are missing and presumed dead after the 15-metre wooden longliner went down without broadcasting a mayday call on Thursday morning.
It emerged yesterday that the men presumed dead had 11 children between them ranging in age from three to 13.
