LONDON: A Mexican swimmer Fausta Mareno (41) died on Friday while trying to swim across the English Channel.

India’s Bula Chowdhury is awaiting the weather to clear before taking the plunge for a non-stop two-way Channel swim.

The 29-year-old Bula who had crossed the Channel in 1989, was scheduled to take the plunge on Thursday or Friday but was forced to put it off because of bad weather.
