SERDANG: An Air Force personnel, who was reported missing since Aug 24, has been found safe earlier Wednesday (Sept 3) afternoon.

Participants were allowed to return home on Aug 22 and instructed to report back on Aug 25. However, he failed to do so, prompting his course supervisor to lodge a police report that day.
