(ANSA) - Genoa, August 1 - Search operations to find the body of the Costa Concordia's Indian steward, Russell Rebello, will resume Tuesday aboard the wreck of the cruise liner following its re-floating, port officials said Friday.
    The search for the man who was among the 32 people killed when the ship ran onto rocks off Tuscany in January 2012 will begin on the third and fourth decks of the vessel, officials said.
    These are now above the water line following the salvage operation last month off the Tuscan island of Giglio.
    Should the body not be found there, the search will be continued by divers on the partially submerged second deck and the completely submerged first deck, the Port captain's office said, following a meeting to plan the operation.
