A Cook Islands police spokesman says police are unable to release details about an incident in which a 22-year-old Fijian man fell overboard on an inter-island ferry.
The man is Lady Moana Heading from Mangaia to Rarotonga.
The police patrol boat spent nine hours on the water on Monday and returned to the area again today to continue the search.
Trevor Pitt said there was little hope of finding him alive as the search entered its second day.
“As we are already in the second day of the search, the hope of finding him is slim, but there is a good chance we will find him.”
He said police could not release any information about the incident itself.
“However, police investigators are continuing to investigate the individual’s actions, whereabouts and the circumstances surrounding the incident.”
