MARGAO: Even as questions have been raised at the Cutbona fishing jetty over the arrival of crew members from the neighbouring state right under the nose of the law-enforcing agencies, the Health Department has said it has intensified its vigil at the Cutbona jetty.

Around 20 crew members, including the six migrant crew, who had reportedly sneaked into the state, have all been quarantined at the Margao Residency.
