ANEWLY GRADUATED British doctor died on Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula during an open-water course dive - and her instructor called for her mobile phone to seek advice rather than trying to rescue her.
That was the claim made at an inquest held in Bristol on 24 November into the death of Dr Olivia Byrom on 8 June, 2018.
Shortly after the fatal incident, a friend of Byrom’s contacted DIVER to say that her family had been left in the dark about the circumstances of her death.
