Sarangadi was foraging for shellfish in the river when the crocodile attacked him.

The beast reportedly launched out of the murky water and latched onto his torso with its jaws.

The man’s pals tried their beast to reach him but he was quickly dragged into the depths.

A devastated friend of Sarangadi said he had seen a “whirlpool” in the middle of the water shortly before the shocking attack.

Asdar recalled the moment villagers entered the river while he decided to remain on the riverbank. Shortly after they began their activity, a commotion caught his attention in the middle of the river.

“Suddenly, a crocodile surged out of the water and attacked Sarangadi.

“He works as a farmer. Collecting shellfish is not a usual part of his routine. He could have lived if we had not invited him.”
