BANJARNEGARA, Central Java (JP): Three people died on Sunday

day of torrential rain in Susukan district.

The three victims, who lived in a village near Gumelem River,
were identified as 16-year-old Buhron, 33-year-old Warsinem and
her 3-year-old son Musola.

Buhron was washed away as he attempted to cross the river,
while Warsinem and her son were swept as they bathed on the bank
of the river.

The bodies of Wasinem and Buhron were recovered about one
kilometer downstream, while Musola's body has yet to be
found.(45/lup)
