Russian male rescued from flooded cave in Keri by Drishti lifeguard

By Goan Observer Team

Drishti lifeguards rescued an individual from a cave which was rapidly flooding due to the high tide on April 9, 2020. The male who is a Russian national is believed to have been living in the cave for the past few weeks. During a routine patrol by the lifeguard stationed at the Keri beach area, lifeguard Girish Talkar spotted a man in a small narrow cave along the shoreline. He seemed to be in obvious distress as the cave was flooding rapidly due to the high tide. The male also appeared to be physically challenged as he was unable to walk. The lifeguard Girish sprang into action and called for back-up. Meanwhile a call was placed for an ambulance and to the police patrol room. Soon after lifeguards Dhako, Jayesh and Vikram joined lifeguard Girish to assist him in the evacuation and rescue operation. The victim was evacuated on a spine board and brought to shore. His vitals were checked and appeared to be normal. The victim was shifted to the ambulance and transported to the PHC at Mapusa. From conversations with the locals in the area it is believed that the Russian national named Valenti, has been residing in and around the cave for the past few weeks. Contact has been made with the brother of the victim who is residing in Russia. The Russian embassy has been informed about the incident. In the Keri and Morjim area a number of international tourists who are stranded in Goa continue to reside at the beach huts along the shore. At noon on the same day locals alerted the police about a party attended by close to 60 foreigners in a forested area at Morjim.
