"Goods was loaded into the cargo boat at the Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT). After that, the boat went to the Ballard Pier nearby and the stock was unloaded and filled into a big ship there.

However, the staff from another boat nearby rescued the trio, he said. The cargo boat later sank, the police official said, adding that the statements of the three rescued persons, who are local residents, were recorded.
