BAKU, October 15 (RIA Novosti) - Azerbaijani divers discovered on Monday two more bodies at the site of a helicopter crash in the Caspian Sea, a State Oil Company of Azerbaijan spokesman on Monday.

Rescuers said one of the bodies, which have yet to be identified, was dressed in civilian clothes, while the other was wearing a crew member's uniform. At present, bodies of four of the six people onboard have been found.

The Mi-8T Hip transport helicopter went down on Friday evening in normal weather conditions, 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the shoreline. The crash occurred during the attempted evacuation of a sick worker from the Khazar-4 offshore drilling platform. On Saturday, rescuers found the bodies of two pilots.
