Horrifying Moment Womans' Remains Found INSIDE 14ft Crocodile After She Vanished From River
Halima Rahakbauw, 54, was killed by a 14-foot crocodile when she was washing her plates in the Wali Rover, Indonesia, with parts of her body found inside the monster MailOnline 23 AUG 2024 ![]() The crocodile was caught and killed after the attack ![]() A grandmother washing pots in a river was dragged underwater and killed by a crocodile, before it bit off nearly all of her limbs. Halima Rahakbauw was killed as she stooped to wash her pots in the water Halima Rahakbauw, 54, was washing up in the Wali River in Maluku, Indonesia, after enjoying fresh clams for lunch when the massive reptile attacked. The 14-ft crocodile dragged her into a death roll to subdue her. Halima’s arms and a leg were bitten off in the attack. The incident was spotted by passer-by Ali Rahangmetan who was crossing the Wali Bridge when he spotted flailing in the water. He raised the alarm and Halima's family were alerted. Ali said: “ I saw someone swimming, but I couldn't see their body. Only their legs were visible. “To make sure, I went out of my car and finally saw it was a human being eaten by a crocodile. I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman. Only the legs and intestines of the person were visible.” The female crocodile was later found still gnawing on Halima's mangled corpse before police shot it dead. Villagers dragged the reptile's body back to town and cut it open where they found Halima's body parts in its stomach. Jamia Seknun, one of Halima's relatives, said she saw the grandmother earlier in the walking from the river with a bucket of shellfish. The elderly woman then returned later to the river to clean the pots - never to return. She said: “She left early in the morning because she was afraid the river level would rise by noon. Later, my mother screamed a crocodile had eaten someone. I didn't know who it was at first, but I had a feeling it was her.” The Indonesian archipelago is home to 14 types of crocodile, with a large population of extremely large and violent estuarine crocs who flourish in the region's climate. ![]() Team hauling the crocodile from the river Conservationists believe they have been driven further inland closer to villages due to overfishing which have reduced the crocodiles' natural food supplies combined with habitat loss from the development of coastal areas into farms. Assistant Inspector Abson Tonga, head of the Bursel Police Resort (Polres) Integrated Police Service Centre, said: “After arriving at the Wali River, the personnel and volunteers immediately conducted a search around the riverbanks.” |
