The joint SAR team managed to find 84-year-old (elderly) who was reported missing after saying goodbye to a garden in Jorong Koto Tinggi, Nagari Koto Tinggi, Baso District, Agam Regency, West Sumatra (West Sumatra).

The elderly named Pakiah Munir was found safe not far from his home, Thursday, January 19, at around 10.15 WIB.

"The victim was immediately taken to his house and handed over to the victim's child," said Head of the Agam Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), Bambang Warsito in Lubukbasung, Thursday, January 19, as reported by Antara.

He said the victim was reported missing by the family after going to the garden on Wednesday, January 18 morning. The victim did not return home until the Dzuhur Prayer and the victim's child tried to see the location of the garden.

However, the victim's child did not find any signs of his whereabouts and reported it to local residents.

"The victim's child and local residents tried to find it, but the victim was not found until Wednesday (January 18) afternoon," he said.

He added that by not being found, the incident was reported to the Agam BPBD.

After that, the Agam BPBD dispatched members of the Task Force to look for victims and were found safely.

He admitted that this missing person was the second incident in Agam during January 2023. To that end, Bambang appealed to residents to supervise parents who were over 70 years old when they went to the garden to minimize unwanted things.

"Don't let parents go to their own gardens, because it's very risky to be dizzy, lost and so on," he said.
