JAKARTA - The story of the death of Vanessa Angel and Bibi created News Anchor, Abraham Silaban. The video clip was then re-uploaded by netizens and went viral. Abraham Silaban cried when he heard the testimony of an eyewitness, Aris Salim, a pineapple trader, who visited the site of Vanessa and Bibi's deadly accident last time.
Aris admitted that he witnessed the moments Vanessa and Gala wanted to get closer to each other. He became Gala's first savior after the accident. While selling under a toll bridge, he was surprised to hear the sound of a car crashing.
"At that time, I heard a loud buzzing sound above the bridge. Then I ran, climbed over the side of the cliff," said Aris, quoted by iNews TV news broadcast, November 12.
Aris saw that Vanessa Angel was lying helpless in the middle of the road and far from the position of the car. "Up to the top, Vanessa was already lying down and the driver was out of the car," he said. He admitted that he had seen Vanessa Angel move her hand before taking her last breath.
Aries' surprise was even more shocking when he saw Gala crawling in the middle of the road. "You said you saw Gala crawling first?" asked the TV presenter.
When he was about to help Gala, Aris said that the little boy had been carried by the driver, Tubagus Joddy. When Aris approached Joddy, the driver handed Gala to him.
According to Aris's confession, at that time Joddy reasoned that he wanted to call his family.
"Yes, then the driver was given to me," said Aris Salim.
"The driver immediately called, did not know who called," he added.
Then, Aris confirmed that at that time he saw Gala crawling in the middle of the road approaching Vanessa Angel who was lying helpless.
"What I see is that. It doesn't add or subtract. At that time the child was outside. The driver carried the child. I immediately arrived. 'Please hold, I want to call the family', "added Aris.
Still curious, the TV presenter asked how Aris had left Gala in another car. Aris admitted that he could not bear to see Gala, who was badly injured, overheated on the highway.
So, he stopped the oncoming car to leave Gala. "You said you picked up the child in the middle of the road, then you left it in the car that was near the incident?" asked the TV presenter.
"I'm sorry, it was hot at that time. When a gray car stopped, I immediately left it to the driver of the car," said Aris.
Regarding Gala's injuries, Aris admitted that he could not see the face of Vanessa Angel's only son. "I can't even ask. Because I'm also a father who has a baby. I can imagine what it's like, I'm not strong, I think," said the TV presenter while sobbing.
