  "summary": "The Kajang MRT line experienced a disruption this morning due to an attempted cable theft between the Phileo Damansara and Pusat Bandar Damansara stations. Rapid KL detected the rail line encroachment and cable theft attempt at 5.30am, leading to a temporary cut-off of power supply to the area. This allowed auxiliary police to conduct security checks and locate the suspect, though it is unclear if anyone was apprehended. Power supply was restored at 6.32am, with Rapid KL noting that waiting times might be slightly longer than expected as services recover.",
