Billionaire who collaborated with India to bring Cheetahs from Africa, is aboard missing submarine
Submarine on mission to view Titanic wreck is missing since Sunday
London: Captain Hamish Harding, Chairman of Action Aviation and a British businessman who collaborated with the Indian government to bring cheetahs from Namibia to India, is one among the five people who went missing in the Atlantic Ocean aboard a submersible on a mission to have a look at the wreckage of the Titanic - the iconic ocean liner.
Reportedly, the research vessel Polar Prince lost contact with the submersible on Sunday about an hour and 45 minutes into its dive in mid-Atlantic. The sub belonging to OceanGate Expeditions confirmed that its submarine was lost at sea. The company offers eight-day missions to see the Titanic wreckage for USD 250,00 per person. Meanwhile, the company in a statement mentioned that they are exploring and mobilising all options to bring the crew back safely.
The BBC reported on Tuesday that British-Pakistani billionaire businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman were also on the sub.
Hamish Harding, in collaboration with the Indian government for Project Cheetah, had customised Boeing 747-400 aircraft from Namibia to Kuno to relocate the wild cats in September last year.
