Cops: Burst water pipes may have been due to sabotage

KOTA KINABALU: Sabotage is suspected to be behind recent incidents of burst water pipes in the city, which occurred shortly after the Sabah Water Department announced the contract termination of six private maintenance companies last month, said police.

Kota Kinabalu City police chief Asst Comm Habibi Majinji said they were looking for two suspects who were seen near an area in Luyang, where a water pipe had burst.
