Bizo and Tony met a watery grave when they along with their colleague Antony were taking a dip in the river at a deep spot. They ventured into the river even as they reportedly did not know swimming. Antony alerted the family members of the two teachers, who in turn informed the local police.

The search operation was suspended due to darkness. Police said that it would resume on Monday morning.
