[Photos] Five men who died at Sussex beach were 'Sri Lankan' friends Nitharsan, Kobi, Ken and Kuru Anna from south-east London.

Five men who drowned off Camber Sands were a group of Sri Lankan friends visiting from London.

Four of the men have been named locally as Nitharsan Ravi, Kobi Nathan, Ken Nathan and Kuru Anna – all from south-east London, while 5th rumour to be Indhusan

The full name of the fifth victim is not yet known. The men are believed to be from the Tamil community in Greenwich, south-east London.
Three victims were pulled from the sea off the East Sussex beach yesterday afternoon and emergency services tried and failed to revive them in front of thousands of horrified holidaymakers.
Two more bodies - also believed to be wearing shorts and T-shirts - were found washed up by a walker as the tide went out last night.
They may have been pulled to their deaths by the powerful riptide but Sussex Police is yet to say why they think the men got in trouble, leading to concerns from beachgoers about their own safety.
