Victims' heirs receive payments

JAKARTA (JP): Heirs of the victims of a recent flash food,
which happened in Bogor's Curug Nangka nature park and camping
ground, West Java, will get insurance compensation from the
Jasaraharja Putra insurance company.

They are entitled to insurance compensation because all
visitors to the recreation site are insured, Otong Sugrihno, an
official of the Bogor branch of the insurance company told Antara
in Bogor on Tuesday.

The flash flood, caused by sudden heavy rains, happened last
Sunday afternoon at the recreation site, where a number of people
were walking beside, and swimming in, the Cihedung river.

The flood claimed 15 lives. They were all residents of
Jakarta.

Eight bodies were found on Sunday, shortly after the accident.
Seven more bodies were recovered on Monday morning. (bas)
