BOGOR - An 11-month-old baby died due to a landslide in a housing sheet in Poncol Village, RT 01/RW 02, Ciluar Village, North Bogor District, Bogor City, West Java, Tuesday, February 4 in the morning.
The victim, Muhammad Saka, died as a result of being crushed by debris. Meanwhile, his mother Novi (40) was critical with serious injuries all over her body due to a landslide and was immediately rushed to the hospital by joint SAR officers and residents.
A neighbor of the victim Dwiki Rahmaji said the landslide occurred after heavy rains in the city of Bogor. The cliff as high as about 5 meters in Poncol Village was unable to withstand the load so that landslides hit Zaelani's house, which was occupied by Dani and Novi, along with their three children.
"Every big rain in this area is indeed a flood. But if a landslide occurs this is the first time. I immediately participated in the evacuation after the landslide. The victim's mother was seriously injured and was taken to the hospital if her child died," said Dwiki.
Meanwhile, the Head of the Bogor City BPBD, Hidayatullah, said that heavy rains that flushed Bogor from evening until midnight caused landslides and flooding at several location points. But the worst happened in Poncol Village.
"The landslide occurred at around 23.38 WIB. Currently, two victims have been evacuated. One serious injury was rushed to the hospital and another 11 month old child died," said Hidayatullah.

Hidayat revealed that during the landslide the victim was sleeping in one of the rooms at Zaelani's house, while the other two children slept in another room.
Meanwhile, after the evacuation of the two victims, the BPBD SAR Team has not been able to evacuate the remaining landslide debris. Because the condition of the land in the location is still unstable while the rain is still falling, so it is feared that there will be further landslides in Bogor.
