Manjeshwar, October 23: Two localites of the town were among the 60 fortunate people who were rescued after an Iranian ship carrying 73 voyagers sank in the Persian Gulf last Thursday.
They have been identified as Avinash (25), a resident of Hosangady near here and Mohammed Haneef (37), a resident of Peringady near here.
13 people including seven Indian divers, who had stuck underwater, when the ill-fated ship sank about 20 km off the oil rich nation's southern Assaloyeh port, have lost their lives. The tragedy occurred around 5:30 pm IST on October 20, when the ship was advancing towards the port from an offshore oil rig.
The seven deceased Indians were staffers of Mumbai-based firm Adsun Offshore Diving Contractors Pvt Ltd.
Both Avinash and Haneef contacted their family members over phone after the tragedy to inform that they were safe.
Hanif has been working in Iran for over eight years, while Avinash was serving as a caterer on board the ship. The latter had visited his hometown three months ago to attend his sister's marriage.
