FATAL – 1 August 2011 – Anse Lazio, Praslin, Seychelles – diver attacked

2 August, 2011

In a fairly sketchy AFP report published in Gulf News, it’s reported that a French scuba diver (a 36-year-old male, name not reported) died from wounds from a possible shark attack while diving off Anse Lazio, Praslin isle in the Seychelles archipelago. The incident occurred on Monday 1 August 2011.

Some officials speculated the wounds could have been caused by a boat propeller. An autopsy was being conducted today (2 August).

A police spokesperson said tourists on the beach tried to help him, “but he died as his injuries were serious”.

No other details were reported.

Will follow this report with an update later.
