Joint Joints During The Evacuation Of The Jambi Police Chief In Bukit Tamia, Dankopasgat TNI AU Calls The Position Of Inealable Victims
JAKARTA - The Commander of the Indonesian Air Force's Rapid Action Force Command (Dankopasgat) Marsda TNI Taspin Hasan explained that the stretcher that rotated when one of the soldiers carried out the evacuation of the Jambi Police Chief Inspector General Rusdi Hartono occurred because the victim was placed in an ideal position.The rotating tudu had raised questions when the evacuation video from the location of the Jambi Police helicopter crash in Bukit Tamia, Kerinci Regency, Jambi, was broadcast by the media and spread online."Due to the injuries suffered by the victim, the team decided to donate it to the drag bar in an unbalanced position," said Taspin in his statement in Jakarta, Antara, Wednesday, February 22.Dankopasgat said that the joint search and rescue team (SAR) had indeed decided on such placement after finding the Jambi Police Chief had broken his hands and back so that it was positioned slightly tilted."However, we have anticipated the double safety equipment we use, although the twist is still safe," said Taspin.Later, Dankopasgat even asked the Commander of the 462 Command Battalion, Lt. Col. Pas Muhammad Junaidi, who was tasked with leading the Indonesian Air Force SAR team in the joint evacuation team."Kopda Ahmad Novrizal, Commander," said Taspin quoting a short message from Danyoko 462 Kopasgat.Despite raising questions, the scene in the rescue video also invites appreciation from netizens who think the Kopasgat soldier who was on duty on a stretcher in a circle looks calm in carrying out his duties.Even the appreciation also came from the National Police Chief, General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, who gave a thumbs up for the courage of Kopda Ahmad in carrying out his duties."On behalf of the leadership of the National Police, I would like to thank you," said the National Police Chief when welcoming Kopda Ahmad and the joint SAR team at Sultan Thaha Saifuddin Airport, Jambi, Wednesday.The action of Kopda Ahmad marked the completion of the evacuation process for the Jambi Police Chief's helicopter accident in Bukit Tamia on Tuesday (21/2) yesterday afternoon.Dankopasgat said that since receiving orders from the TNI Commander Admiral Yudo Margono to deploy assistance, he had indeed considered deploying the best personnel.The choice fell to Yonko 462 "Pulangeni" Kopasgat which is based at the Roesmin Nurjadin Pekanbaru TNI AU Base (Lanud), because its location is closest to the scene.Dankopasgat also ordered the best combat SAR team (Sarpur) in Yonko 462 Kopasgat by appointing Danyenko Lt. Col. Junaidi as its leader.Danyenko 462 Kopasgat chose his team members consisting of Sertu Evis Lukman E., Sertu Al Azhar, Kopda Firmanullah, Kopda Ahmad Novrizal, Praka Demil Din Metra, and Pratu Yonsan Derek Suidale.The SARPur Yonko 462 Kopasgat team departed for the NAS-332 Super Puma H-3211 helicopter since Monday (20/2) but the entire joint SAR team decided to postpone the evacuation process due to weather problems at the scene.The weather was still an obstacle from Tuesday (21/2) morning until noon, before finally the sky was quite clear and the team continued the evacuation process.The Indonesian Air Force helicopter then carried out a maneuvering (gliding) above the scene before finally Kopda Ahmad Novrizal came down using a hoax technique in the middle of a strong enough wind to start lifting the Jambi Police Chief using a stretcher."This method process takes a total of 18 minutes from descending to pulling back into the helicopter," said Taspin.Dankopasgat again appreciated the success of the Jambi Police Chief's evacuation process while reminding that the work of the SARPur team was not easy."On the battlefield they must enter enemy areas to save soldiers, friends who are left behind or fall. They must carry out a mission to dare to be at high risk when other troops have left the combat area," said Taspin.
