Rendi Efendi (21), a construction worker fell into the Ciliwung River which is located in Kebon Baru Village, Tebet District, South Jakarta, Thursday, March 30.
Until tonight, the joint SAR Team was still searching for the missing victims who drowned. However, Rendi's whereabouts have not been found.
As is known, Rendi fell into the flow of the Ciliwung river when he brought iron to put a sheet pile on the banks of the Ciliwung river. He slipped into the Ciliwung river and has not been found.
Head of the Jakarta SAR Office, Fazzli, said that his party had dispatched rescue personnel to search for victims along with other joint SAR elements who were first at the location.
"The search was not optimal because the location was raining which caused the water discharge to be quite heavy and high, making it difficult for the team to dive," Fazzli said in a statement received by VOI, Thursday, March 30, evening.
Fazzli emphasized that his party will continue to search tonight through ground visuals.
"Search through riverbanks and if conditions allow, we will deploy rubber boats to comb the river flow," he said.
Today's search, he continued, will follow the Ciliwung River flow and the sweeping of land routes up to a radius of approximately 1 kilometer from the scene.
Meanwhile, dozens of joint SAR personnel were deployed in an effort to search for victims consisting of the Jakarta SAR Office, Tebet Police, Tebet Koramil, South Jakarta Firefighters and others.
