S'gor alleges sabotage in latest round of odour pollution causing widespread water cuts in state


SHAH ALAM (Bernama): Selangor is crying sabotage over the latest odour pollution in Sungai Selangor which forced the Tuesday (Nov 10) shutdown of four water treatment plants supplying piped water to about 1,139,008 accounts in the state and Kuala Lumpur.

State tourism, environment, green technology and Orang Asli affairs committee chairman Hee Loy Sian (pic) said initial investigations found that the odour pollution, believed to be from solvents, originated from the Indah Water Konsortium (IWK) plant in Taman Velox, Rawang.
