The businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48 years old, and the teenager Suleman Dawood, 19 years old, died ‘hand in hand’ aboard the lost submersible Titan, their family said with a broken heart. Yesterday (FRI), as their family paid tribute to the two, saying that the relationship between father and son was ‘a joy to behold’, fierce criticism of the submarine operators grew.
In a statement on behalf of the Dawoods, it reads: ‘With deep sadness, we mourn the tragic loss of Shahzada and his beloved son, Suleman, who embarked on a journey to visit the remains of the legendary Titanic in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean’.”
