Putra Heights inferno: sixth day operations focus on draining rainwater from crater

Large volume of accumulated water has to be pumped out before safety evaluations can be carried out, says Subang Jaya top cop

KUALA LUMPUR – On the sixth day of operations at the site of the gas pipeline fire in Putra Heights, Subang Jaya, the main focus is on draining the rainwater that accumulated in the crater caused by the explosion. 

Subang Jaya police chief Wan Azlan Wan Mamat said the draining is critical to enabling safety assessment work to resume. 

“This morning, our focus remains on the fire crater as there is still a large volume of water that needs to be pumped out before we can proceed with the usual safety evaluations,” he told Bernama. 

Meanwhile, Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan is expected to hold a press conference at 4pm today at the site command post in Putra Heights, Subang Jaya. 

Yesterday, Fire and Rescue Department director-general Datuk Nor Hisyam Mohammad said the final safety assessment at the crater site was expected to be completed today. 

Nor Hisyam said the findings on the fire crater would be presented to the Selangor State Disaster Management Committee soon. 

The gas pipeline fire, which broke out at 8.10am last Tuesday, saw flames soaring over 30 metres with temperatures reaching 1,000 degrees Celsius. It took nearly eight hours to fully extinguish the blaze. 

A total of 87 homes were completely destroyed and rendered uninhabitable, while 148 other homes were damaged but deemed to be still livable after repairs. 

As of yesterday, 509 families had registered at the temporary relief centre, while some victims are staying elsewhere. 

The number is expected to increase as some residents were away during the incident on the second day of Aidilfitri. 

Those who have yet to register are advised to do so to ensure they are not left out of receiving assistance. Registration will close at noon today. – April 6, 2025
