KUALA LUMPUR, November 7 — Authorities have announced the full closure of Jalan Batu Arang-Ijok, a stretch of road near the 32nd Mile in Rawang's Fruit Valley area, following a landslide that occurred on Thursday night. Gombak district police chief ACP Ibrahim Husin reported receiving a call about the incident around 11pm.
According to preliminary investigations by both the police and the Batu Arang Fire and Rescue Department, the landslide resulted from the failure of both the upper and lower slopes, as well as a section of the road itself. The Fire and Rescue Department stated that the collapse has made the roadway unsafe for traffic moving from Ijok towards Rawang, compelling the closure of the lane in both directions.
No casualties or injuries were reported in the incident. The precise cause of the landslide is currently under investigation and being examined by the relevant authorities.
