They assure that it is not the corpses of two young people who disappeared last Sunday on a paddle surf board

The bodies of two people have been found this Tuesday in the sea off the coast of Fuengirola (Málaga), sources from the security forces have informed EFE and -according to local media- It would not be about the two young Argentines who disappeared on a paddle surf board in Malaga.

One of the hypotheses being considered is that they may be migrants that they traveled in a small boat, indicates the local press, which also specifies that they do not bear a physical resemblance to the boys who disappeared last Sunday and that they are being sought by maritime and air means of various emergency services since Monday. They also add that the corpses appeared dressed when the young people, aged 29 and 34, went sailing with the paddle surfing board early on Sunday to see the sunrise.

The bodies have been found in Fuengirola, on the Western Costa del Sol, and this Tuesday the boys were being searched for in another area, off the coast of Torrox, on the Eastern Costa del Sol. The paddle surfing board and the mate pipe that the young people were carrying were located at around 6:43 p.m. this Monday, 15 miles southeast of Malaga and collected by the Salvamar Hamal Maritime Rescue vessel, material that was taken over by the Judicial police. The boys had gone sailing on a yellow alert day due to strong northerly winds that caused numerous incidents in the province of Malaga.

Maritime Rescue coordinates this search and issues notices in this regard to the vessels that navigate in the area.
