IPOH: Heavy rainfall over the past two weeks is one of the contributing factors for the rockfall incident in a quarry that caused two victims to be buried in Keramat Pulai, Jalan Simpang Pulai-Cameron Highlands, here on Tuesday (March 8) morning.

Perak Department of Mineral and Geoscience (JMG) director Datuk Ahmad Zukni Ahmad Khalil said the quarry was one of the most active quarries operating in Simpang Pulai.
