KINSHASA, Congo (AP) - At least 10 bodies have been recovered after a boat capsized on Lake Tanganyika in eastern Congo, an official said Wednesday. The official said the overloaded boat was piloted by a drunken captain.
"Ten bodies were fished out of the water, including seven children and three adults. Three are still missing," said Rigobert Tshimanga, the district commissioner.
The bodies were found on Sunday and police, fishermen and the chiefs of surrounding villages were continuing to look for the missing following the accident last Friday, he said.
