KUCHING, Dec 8: A 70-year-old man, who was found safe after he was reported missing for over 24 hours at his durian orchard in Kampung Merasam Darat, Limbang, on Saturday (Dec 6), claimed he had followed the trail of a ‘beautiful woman’ beforehand.

According to a TVS news report, Limbang District Police Chief Superintendent Parum Niot said the victim, Renggi Minggat, was found in a weakened condition at 3.30pm on Sunday (Dec 7).

According to him, the victim claimed he was accompanied by a ‘beautiful woman’ while cutting down a durian tree and had followed her deep into the forest.
