The incident unfolded when the Basarnas team received a report that a resident, identified as TY (21), was attempting to end their life by climbing a tower in Sentani Barat District, Jayapura Regency, on Wednesday (March 13). The Basarnas team immediately called upon Tri to initiate the rescue as TY refused to descend despite the persuasions of the authorities.
