JAKARTA - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil gave an explanation about the condition of the body of Emmeril Kahn Mumtadz or Eril which was still intact when it was found at the Engehalde Water Dam, Bern, Switzerland.

He gave this explanation after bathing Eril's body in a hospital in Switzerland. Ridwan Kamil had previously applied for permission to go abroad from 9 to 19 June 2022 after receiving news that Eril's body was found.

In an upload to his Instagram account, Ridwan Kamil explained that the cold temperature of the Aare river made Eril's body still intact because it was half frozen. In addition, there are not many animals that live in the river.

"The scientific explanation of why the body was intact, the Aare River, which was as cold as a refrigerator and minimal fauna, kept the body half frozen, so that it remained completely intact even though it was at the bottom of the river for 14 days," he said on his ridwankamil Instagram account, Friday, June 10.

Eril's body was found at around 06.50 am Swiss time or 11.50 am WIB, Wednesday 8 June. Information published by the Bern Police on Thursday stated that Eril's body was found by a man at the Engehalde Water Dam, Bern.

Ridwan Kamil also revealed that after two days of his body being lifted to the ground from 14 days of searching the river, Eril's body was still intact and smelled good. Like a miracle, Ridwan Kamil is grateful for what he has experienced.

"And masyaallah. Even though 14 days have passed, his body is still intact, not missing anything, a neat face looking to the right and I testify, Eril's body smells like eucalyptus leaves. It's a small miracle for which we are very grateful," said Ridwan Kamil.

As is known, Eril was declared missing while swimming in the Aare River, Bern, Switzerland, since Thursday, May 26, 2022. According to a local police statement, the 22-year-old youth experienced an emergency situation while swimming in the river.

Eril's body was found on Wednesday, June 8, local time. It is planned that Eril will arrive in Indonesia on Sunday, June 12 and will be buried on Monday, June 13.
