The body of Lieutenant Abhinav Nagori, the second officer missing, was on Friday recovered from the fuselage of the ill-fated Navy Dornier, which crashed into sea on the night of March 24.

His body is being taken to Goa.

Flight Data Recorders have also been recovered from the fuselage while the search and rescue teams are being called off.

Naval divers had earlier recovered the body of Lieutenant Kiran Shekhawat, who was in the aircraft along with Commander Nikhil Joshi who was able to survive the crash.

The aircraft was on a routine sortie with a three member crew on-board when the controlling tower lost contact with it at 10.08 pm on Tuesday. Preliminary findings reportedly indicate that the plane developed some technical snag causing it to crash in the sea.
