Rescue workers searched the half submerged hulk of a capsized Italian cruise ship for 14 people still missing Monday, more than 48 hours after the huge vessel capsized, killing at least six and injuring more than 60.

According to Reuters, three people, a South Korean honeymoon couple and a member of the ship's crew, were rescued Sunday and police divers also recovered the bodies of two elderly men, still wearing emergency life jackets.

A sixth body, that of an adult male passenger, was found just before dawn Monday, Italian television said.

Nine passengers, one of them a young child according to Italian media, and five crew members were still unaccounted for from the disaster off Italy's west coast.

The captain of the 114,500 tone Costa Concordia was arrested Saturday, accused of manslaughter and abandoning his ship before all of the more than 4,200 passengers and crew had been evacuated.

Italian, German, French and British nationals were among the passengers on board. There were also 1,000 crew.

On Sunday morning, UK Foreign Secretary William Hague told Sky News all the Britons - 23 passengers and 12 crew - were now safe and accounted for, BBC reports.

Several passengers compared the accident to the film Titanic, about the sinking of the giant ocean liner in April 1912 which claimed more than 1,500 lives.

The president of Costa Cruises, Gianni Onorato, said the company would "be working in full transparency with Italian authorities" to understand the causes of the disaster.
