The search and rescue team (SAR) managed to find the body of a teenager named Aminunsyah (18) after drowning in the sea of Bima Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, since Sunday, March 5.
Head of the Mataram SAR Office Lalu Wahyu Efendi said the victim was first found floating on the sea surface by fishermen looking for fish.
"It was found this afternoon, about 12 nautical miles southwest of the scene," he said in Mataram, Antara, Tuesday, March 7.
The victim, who came from Parado Wane Village, Parado District, Bima, was previously reported missing when she was swimming with her friend at Lere Village Beach in the local area.
Information from the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Bima Regency, when the victim was swimming with dozens of friends, suddenly came with a big wave. The victim and a friend named Ikhsan, were dragged by the big waves into the middle of the sea.
Seeing the incident, the victim's friend on behalf of Husain tried to provide help, but only succeeded in helping Ikhsan. Meanwhile, the victim was not saved and drowned.
After receiving the information, said Lalu Wahyu, his team headed to the scene to conduct a search with other SAR elements. The search effort using a engined rubber boat was carried out for three days, until the victim was finally found.
"Furthermore, the victim was immediately taken to the funeral home," he said.
