Colonel Abdullah Rashid Al-Hafeet, Deputy Director of the Hatta Police Station, explained that the father and daughter were fatigued and unable to continue walking, which required air rescue assistance to get them out of the mountainous trail.
"Due to high rugged terrain and scattering pebbles, rescue patrols had to assist the father and daughter to reach the top of the mountain so the Air Wing could contact them and transport them to the ambulance."
