A landscape and nursery business owner in Jalan Persiaran Tropicana in Petaling Jaya was caught tapping water illegally from Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor (Syabas) water mains during an operation yesterday.

Syabas projects and non-revenue water division executive director Yusof Badawi said the illegal connection had been made using a 14mm flexible piping, laid over the old meter to channel water into the premises.
