Bhuwan BK of Myagdi was successfully rescued, while Bishne Sarki of Beni Municipality–9 in the district remains out of contact. Sarki has been missing since November 11, 2025, after a boat capsized while transporting migrants from Serbia to Italy. BK, who was injured and left stranded following the incident, was rescued through coordinated efforts involving the Migrant Resource Centre (MRC), the Foreign Employment Board, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Embassy of Nepal in Germany. He returned home last week. 'I have been given a new life after being rescued,' BK said, adding that the boat carrying 13 people, including himself, capsized while en route to Italy.
