The inspector said an eight-member group came from Hyderabad and went to RK Beach for a picnic. "Another group from Odisha was also mingled along with them. The Sunday crowd was huge at the beach and most of them ventured into the sea for swimming. A strong current dragged many of them who went deeper into the water. Few could swim ashore while these four persons were drawn into deep waters," said the police.
