KUALA LUMPUR: The incident involving a lift at a PPR (people's housing project) in Kampung Kerinchi, Pantai Dalam, on Aug 2 was due to a brake failure caused by faulty mechanical components.
“Both brakes functioned to stop the car and secured it to a particular floor. During the incident, one of the two brakes had failed to activate, after stopping on the fifth floor," said Federal Territories Minister Khalid Abdul Samad.
