The death toll in the tragedy at Gokarna in Uttara Kannada has risen to three with the body of the missing tourist being fished out on Monday.
A team of 16 tourists comprising techies from Bengaluru had come on a holiday to a resort near Dubbanashasi beach on Sunday, and six of them entered the sea for swimming.
According to sources, they were caught in the waves and began drowning. While three persons, Nishanth D.V., Goutam, and Mohammed Kasim from Bengaluru, were rescued by local fishermen, Shobha Das, 23, of Jamshedpur breathed his last on the spot, and Mohammad Akram, 23, from Bengaluru passed away on the way to the hospital.
