KUCHING (Dec 7). Two five-year-old girls who were reported missing since on Saturday have been found safe this morning at the edge of Kampung Pasir Pandak by a search and rescue (SAR) team.
Humaira Qaleysya Mohd Dir and NurAshafieya Aisyah Abd Nasru Asrafie were located around 9:10am by villagers.
DSP Zamry Ali from the Kuching District Police Headquarters confirmed the girls’ recovery to reporters.
“When they were spotted by the villagers, they immediately rushed put (to them]. The girls were found cold,” Zamry said.
He further confirmed that despite being cold, both girls were found in good health with no injuries.
The two children were reported missing on Saturday night after going to their grandmother’s house, which is nearby their home, to play with their cousins at around 9am yesterday.
The father of one of the girls realized they were no longer in the area, prompting an unsuccessful search by the family. As a result, the SAR operation commenced last night.
