7 underground pipes at Maca landslide site found leaking

INVESTIGATIONS have found that at least seven underground pipes at the site of the landslide on the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Academy (Maca) grounds in Kuala Lumpur were leaking.

Public works deputy director-general (infrastructure sector) Zulkipli Nasri said this had caused a large quantity of water to flow from the pipes, estimated to be more than 40 years old, resulting in a landslide.
