KUALA KRAI: The state Fire and Rescue Department has enlisted the aid of sniffer dog Frankie to aid in the search for 14-year-old student Mohd Rayyan Hakimi Mohd Yusmiza, who vanished on Tuesday. Nik Ahmad Afsham Nik Pa, chief of the Kuala Krai Fire and Rescue Station, informed that Frankie arrived at the scene today to support the rescue operation scouting the Kelantan riverbank.
The teenager is believed to have drowned in the Kelantan River near Kampung Aur Duri, according to Nik Ahmad. So far, the Water Rescue Team has deployed 63 personnel and volunteers, including members of the department, the police, the Civil Defence Force, the Malaysian Volunteer Corps, and villagers. The search has been expanded to a 4km radius, encompassing 12 boats.
Nik Ahmad highlighted the difficulties faced by the operation, citing strong river currents and increasing water levels. The operation was paused at 7pm today and is set to resume tomorrow morning. Earlier this week, the body of Lut Na'im An Mohd Noor Aziron, also 14, was recovered.
