Kundapur, Jul 26: A student from Hyderabad is suspected to have drowned while his companion was rescued by the local fishermen at Murdeshwar here on Sunday July 25.
The students identified as Kalim and Preetham were among 12 students from Hyderabad who had ventured into the sea for some fun times in the water. While the local fishermen were successful in rescuing Kalim, the search is on for Preetham, who is belived to be drowned.
Despite huge signboards cautioning the visitors being erected on the beach here by the civic body, the visitors seem to take the risk of swimming in the waters, especially during monsoon amid turbulent sea.
The local police have registered a case in this regard and investigations are under way. The local fishermen are patrolling the sea shore to trace Preetham.
