Vasco: The Indian Coast Guard team is conducting a search and rescue operation for the two missing crew members of a Gujarat-based fishing trawler, Dhanalaxmi.
The harbour coastal security police, Vasco, said the two crew members, Ajay Panjari and Famla Basumatary, have been missing since the murder of their co-worker Mahendrabhai Somabhai Solanki, 33, at sea.
Solanki was assaulted with a hammer, causing him head injuries and leading to his death. Basumatary is the accused in the murder.
The incident occurred two days ago onboard the fishing trawler approximately 15 nautical miles off the Mormugao harbour.
