The death toll from the multiple trawler tragedy in Bagerhat reached seven on Wednesday, with the recovery of another body at the Bay of Bengal.
However, the identity of the deceased fisherman could not be known immediately.
Members of the Bangladesh Coast Guard, Forest Department officials and local fishermen recovered the body during their search and rescue operations in Dublarchar and Bay areas, said Pralad Chandra Roy, in-charge of the Dublarchar Forest Camp in the Sundarbans.
"Seven other fishermen still remain missing. The search operation has been going on for the last five days," he added.
