Udupi: The bodies of two young fishermen who had gone missing after their boat capsized at Alivegadde in Shiroor, Udupi district, on Sunday evening have been recovered on Monday morning.
The deceased fishermen have been identified as 22-year-old Mohammad Musab, the son of Musthafa from Gangolli, and 24-year-old Nazan, the son of Bavu Noorul Amin. Their bodies were discovered approximately 300 meters away from the location where the boat had capsized. Musab's body was found at 1:30 am on Monday, followed by the recovery of Nazan's body around 2:45 am.
The tragic incident unfolded when the young fishermen, accompanied by Alji Mohammed Yasin and Sarang Mushtaq, ventured to the Alivegadde mini port in Shiroor village to set out to sea on the fishing boat named 'Saifa,' owned by Kurdy Sadiq. While they were in the process of baiting their fishing net, a powerful sea wave struck their boat, causing it to capsize. This unfortunate turn of events resulted in the disappearance of Musab and Nazan.
