The victims of the sinking ships in Lake Toba were left buried in the bottom of the lake along with the ship Sinar Bangun ...**

Lake Toba is one of the largest lake in Indonesia and even the largest in Southeast Asia which is one of the tourist attraction that is visited by many local, national and foreign tourists ...

About a month ago this lake is much highlighted by various media because of the disaster sinking a ship crossing named KM Sinar Bangun who ran aground in the middle of the lake when sailing from the island of Samosir to the mainland of Sumatra with hundreds of passengers and two-wheeled vehicles .. This shipwreck due to bad weather and high waves and also caused overload.

Before it actually ran aground many passengers who waved ambitious to save themselves by climbing the stern of the ship that had been reversed, but only a few minutes later the ship immediately sank to the bottom of the lake along with hundreds of passengers trapped in it .. the help boat that came an hour later was only able help 24 people who 3 of them died ,, the rest vanished in the lake..Indonesia grieve ..

The day after the incident the Indonesian government immediately deployed hundreds of volunteers to search for victims under the coordination of the National SAR Agency or BASARNAS .. Various sophisticated tools were lowered to search for lost victims swallowed by the lake, but because of the vastness and depth of the lake makes it difficult to detect the existence of the victims along with the ship Sinar Bangun, until several times the livelihood is extended but the result is nil .. even the government must deploy elite forces of the Navy or amphibious troops to dive into the bottom of the lake but still they can not find the victim ..

Finally the government brings a special tool in the form of robots capable of taking pictures under water to detect the presence of victims, after combing almost half of Lake Toba finally advanced tool that can record images from the bottom of the lake in the form of shipwrecks and dozens of victims who have frozen in the lake ,, it is amazing that the victim along with the wreck was at a depth of about 500 meters below the surface of the water ..

But after the victim successfully detected its existence, the livelihood operation was stopped because of the difficult reason to lift the victim from the depth, let alone have entered the day to 16,, BASARNAS reasoned that bringing the tool to take the victims from the depth of Lake Toba takes a long time, expensive .. they also reasoned that the corpse of the victim has been more than a week in the lake so that when appointed can cause the corpse is no longer intact, therefore the government officially closed the victim's livelihood operation .. so it can be concluded that about 180 people were forced to be buried in the lake Toba ... really sad, I'm saddened by what suffered by brother in my country.. hopefully I hope they are calm in the lake ..amin
