MATARAM - The SAR team of Mataram City, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) together with the joint TNI-Polri officers have found an angler named Jumri (50) from Jakarta. Jumri was found drowned on Semethi Beach, West Praya District, Central Lombok Regency. "The victim was found dead not far from the scene and has been evacuated directly to Praya Hospital, Central Lombok," said Head of the Mataram SAR Office Nanang Sigit PH, in Praya, Antara, Monday, September 26. The incident that happened to the employee of one of the villas in Selong Belanak Village began when the victim went fishing with her friend on Sunday. However, the victim fished with different locations in the Semati Beach area and was reminded by his friend not to lure too far. "While fishing, suddenly the victim fell and was dragged by the waves, so he drowned," he also said. When the victim fell, he screamed for help, but the victim could not be saved, so he drowned by the current of the waves. "The victim screamed for help," he said again. After receiving information from the public regarding the incident, the Mataram SAR Office dispatched a Rescue Team for the Kuta Mandalika SAR Alert Unit to conduct a search together with elements from the TNI, Polri, local community, and others. After a search was carried out, the victim was finally found on the coast on the second day of the search. "The victim was found about 100 meters west of the scene," he said. Previously, there were 6 SAR personnel from the Kute Mandalika SAR Alert Unit Post with life jacket equipment, ring buy, rubber boat, RIB (rigid inflatable boat), and other supporting SAR equipment to search for victims using SAR equipment. The search was constrained by bad weather, so it was stopped and continued this Monday.
