ACTION can be taken against the developer of a highway construction project if it is found to have contributed to the recent flash floods in Kampung Lembah Jaya Utara, says Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

He said based on a report by the Irrigation and Drainage Department (DID), while the high volume of rainwater on the night of the incident had caused the overflow in Sungai Ampang, the mud came from surrounding developments.
