IPOH: A minaret at a mosque in Kampung Seri Klebang near here crashed down on a homestay premises during a windstorm Saturday (April 25) evening.
The minaret, which also served as a telecommunications tower, at the Al-Amaniah At-Taiyibah Mosque in Kampung Seri Klebang collapsed after being battered by strong wind and rain on Saturday at about 6.30pm.
Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu, who visited the village Saturday night, said about 100 houses there and in surrounding areas were damaged during the storm."Fortunately, no one was hurt during the incident," he said. "It will be something similar to how we handle the homeless when we place them at the transit centre at the Badminton Arena.
"The pandemic is being controlled well and nothing too worrying but there is still a need for social distancing," he added.
