ANYER - The joint Search and Rescue Team or SAR is still looking for a tourist who was reported missing when he was swept away by the waves in the Anyer Beach area, Serang Regency, Banten, yesterday. Until now the person concerned has not been found. "The tourist who had a sea accident was named Agus Sutiono (27), a resident of Solo, Central Java," said Head of the Banten Basarnas Operations Sub-Section Heru Amir in his statement in Serang, Antara, Thursday, February 16. The joint SAR team involved in the search consisted of elements of the Banten Basarnas, Koramil and Anyer, Polairud and Banten Lanal, BPBD Serang Regency, BMKG Serang, Balawista, and the local community. The search for tourists lost in the waves on the second day took place in bad weather conditions in the Anyer Beach area. In addition to high waves, strong winds are also accompanied by rain. However, the joint SAR team tried to conduct a sweep to find the victim. "We hope the weather returns to normal so that the search for victims runs smoothly," said Heru. He said the joint SAR team implemented a victim search strategy by conducting a sweep of three SRUs (search and rescue units). The first SRU conducted a search using a rubber boat along the water area within a radius of three kilometers from the location of the incident. Then the second SRU conducted a search by walking along the coast four kilometers north and the third SRU conducted a search by walking along the coast 4 kilometers to the south. "We hope that with that strategy the victim can be found," he said. Heru said the incident of tourists being dragged by the waves in the Anyer Beach area began when the group of tourists arrived at Anyer Beach, Cibaru, Serang Regency, at 13.30 WIB. At around 13.45 WIB, the victim and several other tourists swam on Anyer Beach. Not long after, the victim was dragged by the waves and drowned until he had not been found until now. Currently, a group of tourists from Solo, Central Java, are still waiting for the search for victims. "We searched for the marine accident according to the SOP, it was stopped if no victims were found," he said.
