I thought it had swallowed plastic or a fishing net. It was cut open to find the problem, and inside there were the remains of a woman.” Local authorities confirmed that the remains were dressed in a black wetsuit. Muhammad Saleh Goro, head of the Regional Technical Implementation Unit for the Management of the Alor Island Marine Park, stated, “We are now investigating the case further to confirm if they are the remains of anyone reported missing in Indonesia.” Also read: British doctor poisons mother’s partner faking it as COVID booster in twisted inheritance plot “From the diving suit worn by the victim, it is suspected that they were a diver.
