The discovery came a day after a preliminary Chinese government probe concluded there were no survivors.
The Lu Peng Yuan Yu 028 overturned on May Sixteen, with Seventeen Chinese, Seventeen Indonesians and five Filipinos on board within Australia’s vast search-and-rescue region, five thousand kilometers west of Perth.
The Sri Lankan navy said its divers had recovered two bodies and spotted twelve more on Tuesday, releasing photos showing the upturned red hull of the vessel and bodies being hauled out of the water.
