Demolition in Kg Jimpangah postponed after villagers resist


KOTA KINABALU: The demolition of houses in Kg Jimpangah, Beaufort, has been postponed until Sunday (May 26) after villagers refused to leave their homes, forcing authorities and the landowner to delay a court-ordered eviction.

The demolition exercise, which began at 10am on Wednesday (May 21), saw four houses partially torn down before work was halted as several residents remained inside.
