The search continues today for a five-year-old Irish child who is missing after a boating incident off the coast of Kenya.
The child’s Irish mother, Mrs Marguerite Pathak (37), her British husband Kiran (42), and their eight-year-old son Sachin drowned in the incident.
The family had just begun a holiday at the Indian Beach Club in the resort of Diani Beach, 20 miles south of Mombasa, when the fishing boat which they were travelling broke into pieces after it was hit by a giant wave, it has been reported.
The couple’s five-year-old child, Rohan, is still missing. It has been reported that the Kenya Navy, divers from diving schools and fishermen are involved in the search.
