In a separate accident, A 28-year-old woman, Sasikala Yadav, jumped into Versova Bay near Ghodbunder Road on Thursday, prompting her husband, Dinesh Yadav, to dive in after her. Despite initially grasping her hand, Dinesh lost his grip due to the strong current, and Sasikala was swept away. The couple had quarreled earlier that day, leading Sasikala to leave their home with their 2-year-old child. She informed relatives of her distress while at Fountain Inn Hotel. Dinesh and a family member attempted to calm her down, and they began to walk back home when she suddenly jumped into the water. Upon receiving the alert, Kashigaon police quickly arrived and rescued Dinesh using a motorboat, but efforts to locate Sasikala continue.
