Search for Indian Woman in Kuala Lumpur Sinkhole

News summary

The search for Vijaya Lakshmi Gali, an Indian tourist who fell into a sinkhole in Kuala Lumpur on August 23, has entered its eighth day with no trace of her found apart from her slippers. Authorities have halted operations involving scuba divers due to hazardous conditions, including strong currents and soil instability, after a second sinkhole appeared nearby. Despite the deployment of around 110 rescuers using advanced techniques such as high-pressure water jets and ground-penetrating radar, the operation has faced significant challenges. Kuala Lumpur Mayor Maimunah Mohamad Sharif has reassured the public of the city's safety, announcing a task force to inspect sewage systems and assess structural safety. Gali's disappearance occurred just a day before she was scheduled to return home from her vacation. Rescue teams continue to seek alternative methods to locate her while prioritizing the safety of personnel.
