A police official of the Manggarai Barat district said, fishermen who joined the search after the divers went missing late Thursday finally found them drifting in waters south off the tiny island of Rinca.

It is said the divers were apparently swept away by strong current when diving, and at least one of them was dehydrated but they are all safe without life danger when rescued.

The divers including three Britons, a Frenchman and a Swede, have been taken to a local port.

The position where they vanished is the Komodo National Park which is famous for the giant Komodo lizard and un-destroyed reef.
