ROME--The Italian prosecutor investigating the Norman Atlantic ferry disaster said Tuesday he assumed more bodies would be found on the ship.

Bari prosecutor Giuseppe Volpe said the fact that a number of stowaways had been among those rescued from the ferry made it "likely" that others had perished in the fire that engulfed the vessel on Sunday morning.
