JAKARTA - A KM Hebat 27 crew member with the initials AF (27) was found dead after falling and drowning into the sea at the Lama Muara Angke TPI, North Jakarta, after being thrown overboard.
The Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Sunda Kelapa Police, Iptu Indra Basuki, said that the incident occurred on Monday, January 19, 2026.
"This victim was thrown into the water on Monday at around 08.30 WIB in TPI Lama Muara Angke, North Jakarta, and was only found the next day (Tuesday) at 18.30 WIB at the same location," said Iptu Indra, Wednesday.
He also explained that initially the ship with the hull name KM Hebat 27 would fill the fuel type solar to the filling station. Because the ship's flow is tight, the victim who was sitting on the side of the ship fell into the water because the ship was moving.
The victim had tried to be helped by two people who were at the location but were unsuccessful and after a search, the victim was only found on Tuesday, January 20, 2026.
At that time, a fisherman saw the body of a man floating around the location where the victim was thrown.
After seeing the body floating, the fisherman contacted the Sunda Kelapa Police Sub-district Crime Unit picket.
He said the criminal investigation picket with members of the Muara Angke Sub-sector, members of the Metro Jaya Police Polairud and Basarnas immediately evacuated the body to the ground for identification.
"This body was immediately taken to Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital for Visum," he said.
