SHAH ALAM, June 30 (Bernama) --There is no element of mischief, sabotage or negligence identified that could cause damage to the gas pipeline and spark the explosion in Putra Heights, Subang Jaya on April 1.
Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan said the conclusion was based on the results of the technical investigation conducted after the explosion of the underground gas pipeline.
The construction of the office shoplots and replacement of the sewerage pipe in the blast area were in accordance with the guidelines set by the Subang Jaya City Council (MBSJ), the Environment Department and Petronas.
“The construction was in the buffer zone and 40 metres from the Petronas gas pipeline,” he said at a media conference about the explosion investigation report at Wisma Dewan Annexx at the Selangor state secretary building here today.
Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari and Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH) Petroleum Safety Director Husdin Che Amat were also present at the media conference.
