KUCHING: Firemen are searching the river banks for a 30-year-old man who went missing while fishing since Monday.
His wife said her husband left home to go fishing at a river in Jalan Diplomatic, Petra Jaya here at 4pm on Monday. When her husband failed to return home that night, she immediately lodged a police report on Tuesday morning.
Fire and Rescue Department (Bomba) personnel, with the man’s family members and villagers, then launched a search for the man yesterday.
However, the search was temporarily called off at noon yesterday due to high tide. The search is expected to continue when the tide is low.
