Historic prison comes down


A CONTRACTOR appointed by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has begun carrying out demolition works on some structures inside the 114-year-old Pudu Jail complex.

The partial demolition is to facilitate the future construction of an underpass at Jalan Pudu costing about RM80mil, part of which encroaches on the land at the historic jail site.
