MAKASSAR - The manager of KM Ladang Pertiwi 2 who survived after his ship sank in the waters of the Makassar Strait, was picked up by the State Ship (KN) SAR Kamajaya on Pamantauang Island, Pangkajene Islands Regency (Pangkep). The management was examined by the South Sulawesi Police.

The four people who came down from KN Kamajaya were then picked up by members of the Directorate of General Investigation and Crime (Dit Reskrimum) of the South Sulawesi Police.

There has been no official statement from the police when carrying the four people related to the sinking of the ship.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Operations Section of the National Search and Rescue of South Sulawesi Muhammad Rizal, said the ship was carrying four people.

There were two victims, one crew member (ABK) named Mahfud and the captain of the ship named Supriadi. Two other people own the ship KM Ladang Pertiwi 2 on behalf of Haji Saiful and the village head on the local island Muhammad Basit.

"We brought the four people in order to match the synchronization data related to the number of passengers loaded when they left Paotere Port to Pamantauang Port," he said.

Rizal hopes that there will be synchronization of the latest development data with the number of passengers, from a total of 31 passengers who were found safe.

"Because the Regent ordered to list all the islands. There are five islands around Pamantauang Island that were on the ship, so the number of residents who boarded the ship was recorded," he said.
