JAKARTADAILY.ID - The search for Ridwan Kamil's son, Emmeril Kahn Mumtadz, or Eril, is still ongoing along the Aare River in Switzerland.
According to Ridwan Kamil's older brother, Erwin Muniruzaman, Eril's search this time involved the environmental community along the Aare River.
"The Bern Police Chief said that they had informed and communicated with the communities in the Aare River, including rowing clubs, gardening communities, and so on," Erwin said as quoted by Antaranews.com on Thursday, June 2, 2022.
Based on information received by the family, the Indonesian Embassy in Bern said that the police in Switzerland ensured that the communities along the banks of the Aare River pay high attention to the search for Eril.
As a family member, Erwin hopes that the community's involvement can help officers, especially in providing any latest updates about the situation along the Aare river.
The community, he said may help spot some potential locations regarding where Eril might have been swept.
Until today, there is no confirmed news about whether Eril might have died or survived after he was reportedly swept away by the current while swimming in the Aare River, Bern, Switzerland on Thursday, May 26, 2022.
Previous news reports said he was swimming with his family and friends, but failed to be saved when the heavy current hit his swimming location.
