After retrieving the body of Ameer Basha who had gone missing since last night while bathing off Ramakrishnan Nagar Beach in Ennore here, Coast Guard said the body of missing person was recovered after it drifted to two nautical miles away from shoreline due to "tidal current and tidal waves".
"As per the information received about the missing of Basha last night while he had gone swimming in Ramakrishnan Nagar beach, Coast Guard launched an extensive rescue operation today", an official release said.
"Because of strong summer condition people venture into sea for recreational swimming. Beaches along Tamil Nadu coastline are not safe due to tidal current and steep depth has caused many casualties in recent past", it said.
