Five fishermen's bodies found

CILACAP, Central Java: Search and rescue workers yesterday found the bodies of five of the seven fishermen who went missing after their fishing boat broke down in high seas last week.

SAR spokesman Atas Munandar said that the bodies, all found near the scene of accident, could not be identified because they had already badly decomposed.

The accident happened on Saturday when the fishermen's boat Bina Putra with eight people on board broke up after it was hit by huge waves. Only one person survived, Antara said.(pan)
