Azmi Baharudin, 55, the owner of the affected house, said the collapse also caused the floor of his house, which is located behind the retaining wall, to shake. “About 10 minutes later, the authorities arrived to inspect the area, and we were instructed to evacuate temporarily for safety reasons as there was still water flowing on the slope, and the rain had not yet stopped,” he said.

Meanwhile, Kuala Lumpur Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department chief ACP Mohd Zamzuri Mohd Isa said all lanes on Jalan Genting Klang heading towards the Middle Ring Road 2 at the site of the incident were temporarily closed to all vehicles.
