Previously, it was reported that seven people were reported dead and dozens injured after a bus group of tourists from Semarang, Central Java, rolled into a 20-meter deep ravine on Jalan Raya Sarangan, Plaosan District, Magetan Regency, East Java, Sunday 4 December.

The Semeru Putra Transindo bus with the police number H-1470-AG was carrying dozens of passengers who were about to go to Sarangan Telaga, Magetan.
