Tunisian coastguard has recovered the bodies of two Bangladeshi nationals from the Mediterranean where an overcrowded boat capsized off the coast of Tunisia on May 9. “Two more bodies were recovered today. He said there is no possibility of recovery of the other 37 who have been missing and feared dead in the Mediterranean where a boat carrying nearly 80 migrants capsized. Ashraful Islam said the only task of the embassy is now to ensure wellbeing of the 14 Bangladeshis who survived and repatriate those who volunteer to return. In the middle of the sea, the migrants were transferred to two boats – one boat arrived in Italy, but the other one capsized because it was overcrowded, he said.
