A |     SEQUOIA NATIONAL PARK, Calif. -- A pilot from France who disappeared while hiking California's towering Mount Whitney was found dead after falling about 1,000 feet (305 meters) off a cliff, the National Park Service said Friday.The hiker was identified as Tom Gerbier of Fontenay-sous-Bois, France, who was a pilot for Air France, the park service said in a statement. He was 38, according to a missing poster issued by the Inyo County Sheriff's Office, which was part of the search. The tallest mountain in the contiguous United States, Mount Whitney rises 14,494 feet (4,418 meters) on the eastern border of Sequoia National Park and is a difficult but popular hike. Gerbier started out at Whitney Portal near the town of Lone Pine early Tuesday and was reported missing when he didn't show up for his return flight Wednesday, the park service said. The park service and local authorities sent ground teams to the area Thursday.The searchers spotted clues that someone may have fallen off a cliff in an area called “The Notch,” and a helicopter crew directed there spotted a motionless person in clothing matching Gerbier's description.The body was recovered by helicopter that evening, and the Tulare County Sheriff's Office confirmed Gerbier's identity. Air France said in a statement that Gerbier had been on a stopover in Los Angeles, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. "The company offers its most sincere condolences to his family and loved ones,” the airline said.。    Jakarta, Oct 20 (UNI) The deaths of nearly 100 children in Indonesia has prompted the country to suspend sales of all syrup and liquid medication.
It comes just weeks after a cough syrup in The Gambia was linked to the deaths of nearly 70 children, reports BBC.
Indonesia said some syrup medicine was found to contain ingredients linked to acute kidney injuries (AKI), which have killed 99 young children this year.
It was not clear if the medicine were imported or locally produced.
On Thursday, Indonesian health officials said they had reported around 200 cases of AKI in children, most of who were aged under five, the BBC reported.
Earlier this month, the The World Health Organization (WHO) issued a global alert over four cough syrups that were linked to the deaths of almost 70 children in The Gambia.
The WHO found the syrups used there -- made by an Indian pharmaceutical company -- contained "unacceptable amounts" of diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol. The syrups have been "potentially linked with acute kidney injuries", said the organisation.
Indonesia's Health Minister on Thursday said the same chemical compounds were also found in some medicines used locally.
"Some syrups that were used by AKI child patients under five were proven to contain ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol that were not supposed to be there, or of very little amount," said Budi Gunadi Sadikin. He did not disclose how many cases involved the toxic medicines.
Indonesian authorities said the cough syrups used in The Gambia were not sold locally.
Indonesian authorities have so far not disclosed the brands or types of syrup medicines linked to sick children - instead just temporarily banning the sale and prescription of all syrup and liquid medicines.
