A sudden storm capsized a cruise boat on Bargi Dam, trapping 70-year-old Riyaz Hussain Sayyed underwater for three harrowing hours. He survived by finding a small air pocket within the submerged vessel. Tragically, his wife and daughter, who were on the lower deck, did not survive the ordeal. Rescuers eventually located and freed Riyaz.
