Indian Citizen Dies After Being Dragged Away By Diamond Beach Nusa Penida

The Indian citizen with the initials AL (26) died after being swept away by a current at Diamond Beach Nusa Penida, Klungkung, Bali. The man was evacuated by the Bali SAR team.

"Actually, the other tourists had been rescued by the victim, but they were unconscious," said the Coordinator of the Nusa Penida SAR Alert Unit, Cakra Negara, quoted from Basarnas Bali statement, Thursday, July 27.

Cakra explained, at that time initial assistance was carried out for the victim by breathing in aid. But that effort did not work.

From the reports received, the SAR team went straight to Diamond Beach to evacuate the victims. Due to extreme weather, the evacuation was carried out by carrying the victim using a stretcher from the beach to the top of the cliff.

The evacuation process lasted about 35 minutes. At 14.30 WITA, the joint SAR team managed to evacuate the victims.

The victim was then taken to Gema Shanti Hospital using the Nusa Medika Clinic ambulance.
