KATHMANDU: Two Nepali brothers were dragged to their deaths after being swept up by a wave in the well-known ‘beauty spot’ of Boca do Inferno in Cascais in Portugal.

According to a report, one brother fell as a result of the wave hitting rocks where they were sited, while the other jumped in after him, calling for help.

Both men appear to have been seen with their arms outstretched in the sea, ‘away from the part where waves were breaking’, but then they disappeared and were not seen alive again.

The deceased are Kamal Waiba, 45, and Shayam Waiba, 40, of Dhading.
