Two fishermen were found dead and four others were found unconscious under mysterious circumstances in the dock area of Mumbai, falling under the jurisdiction of the Yellowgate police station. The victims may have allegedly succumbed to toxic gas inhalation. The two deceased have been identified as Srinavar Yadav, 35, and Nagadond Rangswamy, 27, by the Yellowgate police.
The unfortunate event unfolded on December 25, 2023, when a fishing boat returned from its trip. On the morning of December 26, around 11 am, while unloading the catch, a worker entered the section where the fish were stored for sale. “Upon entering, Yadav immediately lost consciousness. Two crew members who went down to assist also fainted,” revealed a survivor who spoke on condition of anonymity.
