Two persons drowned in a lake in Bachupally on the outskirts of Hyderabad. The victims, identified as Prakash (50) and Raju (37), had gone to the lake for sightseeing. They accidentally went missing while swimming in the lake. It is unclear whether both drowned at the same time or if one started drowning and the other drowned while trying to rescue them, according to the police.
After receiving alerts from locals, the Bachupally police arrived at the scene and initiated a rescue mission with the assistance of expert swimmers. If the bodies are not found by evening, the search operation may be suspended for the night and resume on Saturday.
