At 5.07pm this afternoon (Saturday) searchers found the dead body of the man who appears to have drowned at the base of the falls. Rains in recent days have added water flows to the waterfall and made surrounding rocks additionally slippery.
The man’s body has been taken to Thalang Hospital for examination. Police are investigating the incident and speaking to others at the waterfall this afternoon.
