He said that based on information from residents who reported, initially Baharuddin and a colleague, Haryadi, were hired by crew members of the TB Selatan Jaya IV to dive to release the rope that was stuck in the ship's propeller, at around 20.30 WIB last Thursday.
Prior to the incident, he said, the two divers were on board the ship because the lighting device/flashlight used was caught in the water. Then at around 22:45 WIB, the victim took the initiative to go down again to the sea to dive, but until 15 minutes later it did not go up.
"Finally, Haryadi reported the incident to the Babinpotmar Mentigi Post, at around 23.00 WIB," said Siswanto.
