SEREMBAN (Bernama): The preliminary analysis of samples taken from the location of the source of pollution in Sungai Batang Benar, Nilai, has found that it was due to an organic compound known as dimethyl disulfide.

Veerapan (pic) said the result, obtained last Saturday, was from the analysis of five soil samples taken in the bush area near an industrial area at Jalan Emas, Nilai Industrial Area, which was the source of pollution in the river.
