three days after an Indian fishing trawler capsized in the Bay of Bengal
near Hiron point of the Sundarbans.
With this, the bodies of eight fishermen have so far been recovered in connection with the trawler capsize while six others still remained missing, said commander of Coast Guard Mongla West Zone Captain Kazi Mehedi Masud.
