Residents in Kadu Village, Curug Subdistrict, Tangerang Regency, Indonesia, were horrified by Nadin, an 8-year-old boy who was hanging on a 15-meter high (15-meter) Extra High Voltage Air Line.
The incident occurred on Thursday (4/16/2020) afternoon. From a distance, Nadin was heard screaming for help to get down.
"Please, I don't have a strong grip. I want to go down," shouted Nadin, who was still hanging as hard as she could with both hands.
Meanwhile, State Electricity Company officers from a distance, allegedly continued to pull the sutet cable to a height of about 15 meters. Seen in an amateur video recorded by residents, Nadin's body is still hanging and accidentally pulled along or dragged to the height of the sutet cable to the maximum.
"Don't jump! Don't let go! Come on, where is the mattress, stuck?" Shouted some residents who continued to follow where Nadin was hanging.
The Head of Emergency and Logistics at the Tangerang Regency, Indonesia Disaster Management Agency, Kosrudin confirmed the incident. He said, Nadin was initially playing in the area of the Sutet cable installation project not far from his house.
"He did not know if the cable was going to be pulled, his son was hanging when the cable was still low, but over time the pull up to high, he did not dare to loose," said Kosrudin, Friday (4/17/2020).
Freefall
After a few minutes, residents who were on standby below complete with a mattress, told Nadin to release his grasp. Luckily one of the coffee sellers, managed to catch it.
"Freefall, captured by residents. But his son is still conscious, there may be minor injuries. So immediately taken to the nearest hospital to check everything," said Kosrudin.
In addition to the fact that there were mistakes in parents who did not supervise their children, Kosrudin also admitted that he was disappointed with the State Electricity Company officers who did not place personnel every few meters to oversee the work on the cable installation.
"The officer who pulled it was from a distance, a few kilometers from the starting point. He thought only gardens or vacant land, which turned out to have residents' homes, should be monitored every few meters so that no residents approached," he said.
