One more passengers died after eight days of intensive care
One more victim of the fire on the KMP 'Putri Yasmin' has passed away after undergoing intensive care for eight days on Aug 19. The deceased was identified as Hardian, a resident of Gelogor Village. He was pronounced dead in the ICU of Tripat Regional General Hospital (RSUD) at 4:45 p.m. WITA. The victim was admitted to the P1 (Priority 1) Emergency Unit suffering from severe respiratory failure after nearly drowning during the ship fire incident. Among the 24 passengers treated at the hospital, he was the patient with the most severe clinical condition due to the large amount of seawater inhaled into his respiratory tract. This condition triggered aspiration pneumonia. This high osmolarity leads to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), a syndrome of acute respiratory failure caused by fluid entering the lungs. The four victims who are still missing wer eYasir Arafat, 37, from Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara; Selvina Rambu Mayi, 28, from Sumba, East Nusa Tenggara; I Made Sutarjana, 55, from Denpasar; and Slamet Yulianto, 41, from Denpasar.

Search teams also scoured coastlines on land, while fishermen and coastal communities were enlisted to report any objects or signs potentially linked to the missing passengers. Information about the search was also circulated to passing vessels through the Vessel Traffic Service at Lembar port, expanding monitoring along the shipping route. The authorities would continue coordinating with SAR partners and local fishermen to monitor possible developments. Any new information indicating the possible location of the missing passengers could trigger the reopening of the search. With the operation concluded on the afternoon, all SAR personnel and assets were returned to their respective agencies and units.
