The body of a drowned diver, who disappeared earlier today in the waters of Lake Ohrid, was found this afternoon, near the village of Trpejca in Ohrid.

According to eyewitnesses, he was wearing a diving suit and had full diving equipment.


The Interior Ministry previously announced that a 52-year-old Bulgarian citizen went missing while diving to a depth of 89 meters, above the village of Trpejca.


The incident occurred today at around 13:15 PM, and teams from the Lake Police, the Red Cross and divers from the "Amfora" club were engaged in finding him.

Ohrid Interior Ministry spokesman Stefan Dimoski confirmed the incident this afternoon and announced that the body was recovered from great depths.

The causes of the accident are not yet known./Telegraph/
