  "account": "JERTIH, October 17 — A father and his son, who ventured into a Terengganu forest in search of medicinal roots, were discovered safe by a rescue team on Tuesday afternoon. Adam Adnan, aged 25, and his father Adnan Mohamad, 57, were located around three kilometres from the operation's command post. Besut police chief, Supt Mohd Rozaime Ab Rahim, announced that the duo was extricated from the woodland at 2.45pm via the Lata Kolam Air Deru recreational area. Upon being found, the men were described as weak due to their lack of food for three days while lost in the forest. They were then taken down by the rescue team before being transported in a Civil Defence Force ambulance to Besut Hospital for further medical attention, reported Supt Mohd Rozaime. Initially, Bernama had reported that the missing individuals had entered the forest with the intention of searching for medicinal roots.",
