PORTICELLO, Italy (Reuters) - The body of British tech magnate Mike Lynch was retrieved on Thursday from the wreck of a yacht that sank earlier this week off Sicily during a tempest, a source close to the rescue operation said.

Lynch's 18-year daughter Hannah is still missing, the source said. The bodies of the other four people who vanished when the boat went down were recovered from the yacht on Wednesday.
