Man’s Body Found in Sea near Pirsaat, Azerbaijan’s Caspian Coast
On February 17 in the evening Azerbaijani border guards found the body of a man 40-50 years old on the beach at the Pirsaat village (65 km south of Baku), the State Border Service of Azerbaijan reported.
An investigation is underway to establish the identity of the deceased. It is possible that this is one of the oilmen lost since the collapse of the marine overpass on December 15 last year. Then 10 oil workers were lost at sea. Two bodies were found later, while the rest are still missing. -05D-
