Jakarta - Emmeril Khan Mumtadz or who is often called Eril, was declared dead by the family of the Governor of West Java, Mr. Ridwan Kamil. This statement was made because Eril had not been seen for approximately seven days of searching when he was dragged by the current in the Aare River on Thursday (26/05/22).
RK's family, or Kang Emil, is in Switzerland looking for a postgraduate school for Emmeril or Eril. At that time Eril with his sister and friends swam in the Aare river. They had chosen a river area that was not too dangerous for swimming. However, when Eril helped his sister and friends to get to the mainland, the river was probably too fast for him to feel it.
When carried away by the current, Eril shouted "help", assisted by his family on the riverbank. The locals also heard the screams and informed the police.
"But God's destiny has been determined, Eril was carried away before he managed to climb ashore," said one of the RK family members, Elpi Nazmuzaman in a virtual press conference last Friday (27/5/2022).
After the news that Eril was missing, the Indonesian Embassy in Bern stated that the search for Eril would continue using ground patrols, drones, and boats. After three days passed, Eril's status from missing person changed to drowning person status. Interpol has issued a Yellow Notice regarding Eril.
Until now Eril has not been found, and has been declared dead. One Indonesia feels very concerned about the disaster that hit the family of the Governor of West Java, namely Mr. RK. Since the news of Eril's disappearance, this news has continued to be discussed on various social media, one of which is TikTok. Many people also feel sad and lose the child of the Governor of West Java.
