The bodies were beyond recognition and skin was peeling off, as we pulled them out of debris 48-72 hours after the landslide. This was one of the reasons the rescue operation was called off,” recalled NDRF officer Santosh Bahadur Singh, who was heading the search at Irsalwadi village in Raigad. All pictures: File photo

The traumatised survivors of a landslide at Irsalwadi village in Raigad district on Wednesday night, which claimed 16 lives, opened up about the hellish events they witnessed. Around 10.30 pm, a loud rumble roused the villagers who were fast asleep. They rushed to open their doors, only to see trees collapsing and houses being swallowed by massive waves of mud. Those fortunate to escape sought refuge on open farmland for the night, enduring heavy rainfall as they waited for help.
