Man Found Alive After Three Years Lost in Indonesian Jungle

Jakarta. A 49-year-old man who had been missing for three years in the dense jungle of Mount Salak in Indonesia's Sukabumi region has been dramatically rescued alive. The man, extremely emaciated and reduced to a skeleton, was covered by local media as a very dramatic and surprising rescue. A group of local residents, who went to inspect the flow and condition of a nearby river after heavy rains, found him contemplating on a cold stone in the jungle.

According to the rescuers, the man's physical condition was very pathetic and weak when found. He could not even speak properly, and there was no sign of flesh on his body, only skin and bones were visible. He was not even in a condition to walk on his own feet and was very scared to see people after a long time.

Local residents carried him out of the jungle on a wooden stretcher. Then, to confirm his identity, his fingerprints and irises were scanned at the sub-district office.

After digital examination through technology, the person was identified as 49-year-old Ayi Solehuddin. He is a resident of the Cianjur region, and his family had filed a police report about his disappearance about three years ago.

After his identity was revealed, his family members were called and identified him. According to the family, Ayi had been suffering from mental health problems for a long time, and one day he went towards the jungle of Mount Salak and suddenly disappeared.

After he disappeared three years ago, his family members searched extensively in the surrounding forests for months but he was not found. How he managed to survive alone in the difficult conditions of the jungle for so long has surprised everyone. Meanwhile, there were some reports of him being seen in forests in different areas, but before his family members could reach there, he would disappear again into the dense jungle.

Although the exact time Ayi Solehuddin spent in this jungle of Mount Salak cannot be ascertained, his physical condition clearly indicates that he has been struggling alone without food and water for a long time. He is suffering from severe malnutrition and dehydration.

According to Ayi's brothers, he started showing mental problems after the death of his parents, and he used to wander alone towards the jungle. Although he used to return home after some time in the past, he had not returned for three years after entering the jungle for the last time. He is currently undergoing treatment in the hospital.
