No body found on Peter Madsen’s submarine in hunt for missing journalist

Police believe the vessel was deliberately sunk and have charged Peter Madsen, but he denies killing the female reporter.

Peter Madsen’s sub sank in a bay near Copenhagen on Friday and he claims he returned 30-year-old Kim Wall to Refshale island at 10.30pm on Thursday after she interviewed him.

The inventor, who has been charged with Ms Wall’s killing, escaped the 60ft UC3 Nautilus after it developed problems in Koge Bay.

A massive search for the Swedish journalist began after her boyfriend reported the vessel had not returned from the trip, which set sail from Refshale Island at 7pm on Thursday.

The vessel was found by police in a bay some 30 miles south of the Danish capital Copenhagen on Friday.

Police said on Sunday they had carried out a thorough search of the vessel but found nothing.

Copenhagen police homicide chief Jens Moller said: “The sub has been searched and there is no body on board – neither dead nor alive.”
