KLANG — A search and rescue operation for a group of anglers who went missing at One Fathom Bank in the vicinity of Pulau Ketam has concluded without uncovering new information, according to authorities in Klang.
The SAR effort, which mobilised rescue personnel and resources to comb the fishing area, failed to generate any substantial leads that might aid in locating the missing persons. The operation was called off following an exhaustive search of the site and surrounding waters.
One Fathom Bank, a popular fishing destination off the coast of Selangor, has been the site of previous maritime incidents. The circumstances surrounding the disappearance and the exact number of individuals reported missing were not immediately detailed.
The conclusion of the SAR operation marks a challenging outcome for rescue authorities who had hoped to establish a breakthrough in the case. Authorities have not indicated whether the search may be resumed or if alternative investigative measures will be pursued to locate the missing anglers.
