According to Indonesian portal Jakarta Globe, the man, identified only by the initials ‘Nah’, was taken to the Senaru Community Health Center for exams
A few days after the death of the Brazilian tourist, who slipped on a trail on Mount Rinjani, another visitor crashed at the scene. Last Friday (27), a Malaysian climber was safely rescued after slipping in a rocky and damp stretch 200 meters from the bridge that connects to Lake Segara Anak. According to the Indonesian portal Jakarta Globe, the man, identified only by the initials “Nah”, was conscious and was taken to the Senaru Community Health Center for exams. There, the professionals found only light abrasions on their heads.
The case rekindles concerns regarding the safety of tourists visiting the region. On June 21, publicist Juliana Marins slipped during the trail and fell into a gorge on Mount Rinjani. After four days of failed rescue attempts, he was found dead by the search team. The family sees negligence and over delay from Indonesian authorities to provide help with the young woman. Local government information since the beginning of the case has been marked on errors and fake news. Authorities even told the family that Juliana had received food and water – which never happened. The rescuers only reached where she was four days after the accident.
