Tembagapura Police Chief Adjunct Commissioner Sudirman said here on Wednesday, around 41 people were in the area when the disaster happened, and 14 of them were evacuated, including four dead bodies.
Search and rescue efforts are still going on to look for more survivors, he said. When the landslide occurred, the 41 people were in a class room for a training program.
The collapse of PT Freeport underground mine this time was the biggest with the higher number of victims in the past few years after a similar incident at the Grassberg in 2003. (*/DWA)
