Rajdeep Singh, 25, an Auckland University of Technology student who had been in New Zealand for two months, drowned about 12.45pm on Saturday at Piha Beach. He had been on a trip with AUT and it is believed he either fell into the water or got swept into the water by a wave.
Elmer Abonero was swept off some rocks at Piha Beach on January 3rd 2010. Rescuers were not able to get to the man because of the trecharous conditions. He struggled to stay above the water for about 45 seconds, but then drowned. Life gaurds said he probably would still be alive if he was wearing a life jacket.
