Panaji, Mar 27 (IBNS): The body of one woman Navy Officer, identified as Lieutenant Kiran Shekhawat, was on Thursday evening recovered from the wreckage of the Navy Dornier aircraft that crashed in the sea near Goa on Tuesday.

The debris of a Dornier maritime surveillance aircraft was found on Thursday morning using under water SONAR system.
