Seaman falls off boat; drowns

>From Our Margao Bureau

MARGAO, June 18: Captain of vessel MV Gosalia Prospects, Joe D'Silva died
when he fell off the boat, this afternoon. The strong winds had also carried
away the vessel, which was later brought back to the Mormugao Port Trust's
(MPT) berth.
The incident occurred this afternoon, when D'Silva was climbing up the boat,
which is a mini-transhipper in nature. Though the reason of his slip into
the water was not known, sources said that captain got a sudden heart
attack.
While sources disclosed that ship was also carried away with the strong
wind, police did not confirm the incident.
"We have got the information that the captain died due to drowning. We have
no knowledge about ship sinking or being carried away," stated
superintendent of police (South), Mr I D Shukla.
It is learnt that the ship which was carried away due to strong winds was
brought back to the berth number 10 of MPT with the help of Coast Guard and
MPT.
The Coast Guard officials, when contacted, declined to furnish any
information.
The deceased was 56-year-old and was hailing from Ratwado, Navelim.
His body was fished out by Coast Guard and later brought to Goa Shipyard in
a helicopter. Later, it was sent to Hospicio Hospital, Margao. Harbour
police have registered a case under Section 174 of CrPc.
