Local reports say that a couple from India went overboard from Star Cruises' SuperStar Virgo on Monday while the ship was about 17 miles south of Kendi Island (Malaysia). The 47-year-old woman was rescued, but her 49-year-old husband, has not been found.
According to local media reports quoting a family member, the man somehow accidentally fell overboard from a deck about 65 feet above the water, and his wife dove overboard in a rescue attempt, but the strong current swept him away from her.
The ship was traveling from Singapore to Penang at about 10am local time when the incident occurred. The woman was taken to a hospital on shore and is reportedly in stable condition.
