Most of the bodies were children, said police.
“The Burmese kyat was found from the pockets of some dead bodies and it appears that they might be citizens of Myanmar,” he added.
Recently boat capsized in the Bay with over 200 Myanmar citizens during Cyclone Mahasen. “The bodies might have been a portion of them,” he said.
