GEORGE TOWN: The contractors who dumped construction debris into the sea from an open air parking lot in Lebuh Farquhar here on April 19 were nabbed within four hours, after a security camera caught their lorry's licence plate number.

A source in the Environment Department (DOE) revealed that a security camera was active at the entrance to the parking lot, and the lorry's licence plate number could be clearly read in the video footage.
