29 bodies recovered in Bangladesh ferry capsizing

Relatives of passengers aboard the sunken ferry wait for their missing ones as they watch a rescue operation on the banks of the River Meghna in Munshiganj district, in Bangladesh, Friday, May 16, 2014. Rescuers have recovered dozens of bodies after a ferry capsized during a storm in a river in central Bangladesh, officials said Friday.
A salvage ship failed to pull out the ferry as strong currents in the 18-meters- (60-feet-) deep water brought huge volumes of sand, which was covering the vessel.
