Japan calls off search for missing volcano hikers until next yearend
In the remote island nation of Niue, about 120 miles north of the island nation of Hainan, a search party with sniffer dogs and helicopters has been on the hunt for four people whose cellphones were stolen last week.
The four hikers, who are in their 20s, were walking in the remote, volcanic island when they were approached by three men who asked them to look for the missing “Tuby,” as one guide called the volcano’s peak, and later demanded that the men take the hikers back to their hotel.
A total of 12 people have died in an avalanche that broke loose near Tuby, but no one has been formally blamed.
On Sunday, however, more clues surfaced, including the phone numbers of four of the missing hikers.

While the island’s mayor, Joseph Piyopou, said he is “confident” that the group can be found, the search is a big task that would require the assistance of local and international governments.
While there have been other reports of disappearances on Tuby, it’s difficult to say for sure whether those were related to what authorities suspect is a case of mass desertion. The two most recent disappearances, in February 2010 and in 2006, were reported to be related to a nearby hiking trail and could shed light on what happened to the four hikers.
The three missing hikers, aged 37, 23, and 22 years old, have since been identified as Etsun Shikubo, 38; Soma Shimomura, 46, and Kohei Tsuboi, 44.
Both are fishermen.
The rescue teams are searching for two others who disappeared around two months ago, and also two men they say have c바카라 스토리onfessed to taking the hikers in the search for them. A third suspect has reportedly been arrested, but it is unclear if he has anything to say.
Meanwhile, some have speculated about the reasons for the recent disappearance of the group — including whether they were attacked by locals. However, Piyopou says the hikers have not been attacked.
“When people make threats against us… we need to deal with it,” he told the TV온라인 바카라 news service WNN on Sunday.
Piyopou says a major tourist attraction, a road to the summit of the volcan
