So far, no injuries have been recorded and the house structure is not affected.

The operations centre here received an emergency call at 10.45am today, prompting the authorities to deploy a total of 17 personnel and support machinery from the Seputeh station.

Upon inspection, it was found the landslip was likely caused by a leak from the swimming pool, which also affected the pool and house right below.

The Fire and Rescue Department has started draining water from the initial pool to prevent more soil movement. – Pic courtesy of the Fire and Rescue Department, February 3, 2024

The water is being drained from the initial pool, to prevent more soil movement and possibly another landslip.

A report will be submitted to Kuala Lumpur City Hall’s slope unit, police and the house contractors for further action. – February 3, 2024
