Pari Island – An unidentified male body was found floating in the waters of Pulau Tikus, South Seribu Islands, on Thursday morning (13/3). The body was first spotted by the captain of a sea transport vessel sailing from Pantai Marina Ancol to Pulau Tidung.

Eyewitness Rizal Saepul Pasah (28), who discovered the body, immediately reported his finding to the on-duty officers at Pulau Pari Police Subsector at around 10:15 AM WIB.

“During the trip, I saw something floating. When I got closer, I realized it was a body. I immediately contacted the police,” Rizal stated.

Following the report, a joint team consisting of Pulau Pari Police Subsector officers, Bhabinkamtibmas, Babinsa, firefighters, and the Public Order Agency (Satpol PP) rushed to the location to conduct an evacuation.

The Pulau Pari Police Subsector chief confirmed that the body was found wearing a long-sleeved black shirt with the inscription ‘Anniversary Majalengka Max Owner Mamon’ and a pair of ripped blue denim shorts.
