The second prime minister of Australia who disappeared from Cheviot Beach 1967 December 17 was?

Answer 1

Harold Holt was the Prime Minister.

On 17 December 1967, Holt went swimming at Cheviot Beach on Point Nepean near Portsea, on the Mornington Peninsula, south of Melbourne. This part of the Victorian coastline is notorious for its rough surf, and questions were later asked as to why he even went swimming there. This was a time when the attitude of security in the case of important public officials was taken far less seriously.

No trace of him was ever found, and he was officially declared dead two days later, on 19 December. It is presumed that he drowned, though many conspiracy theories went around, including that he faked his own death in order to run away with his mistress, or that he was a Chinese spy.
