GUA MUSANG: Six people, including a family of four, are feared missing after joining the Trans Gerah Expedition at Gunung Gerah in the Lojing Permanent Forest Reserve here.
Six individuals, comprising a family of four, are currently missing after embarking on the Trans Gerah Expedition at Gunung Gerah in the Lojing Permanent Forest Reserve, located in Gua Musang. The group consisted of a married couple, their two children, and two mountain guides who commenced their journey on August 29. They were anticipated to reach Pos Kemar in Perak on Thursday; however, they have remained unreachable.
According to a source, the last communication with one of the hikers occurred on the morning of September 1, when the family reported their safety and well-being. Despite this, they were unable to be reached thereafter, leading to a police report being filed due to safety concerns. District police chief Superintendent Sik Choon Foo confirmed receipt of the report, stating that the Forestry Department is being consulted. The group is believed to have crossed the Kelantan border towards Pos Kemar.
