Hiker found dead in West Sumatra

PADANG, West Sumatra: A hiker was found dead on Mt. Merapi
after falling 50 meters into a ravine on Sunday, rescue workers
said on Thursday.

Buyung Utih, 20, fell as he tried to descend in heavy fog,
they said, adding that his body had yet to be removed from the
site.

Buyung, who was hiking up the mountain on Saturday night with
seven others, was the fifth fatality on the mountain in five
months.

Four university students went missing in November and were
later found dead. (28)
