  "account": "Selangor Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari has refuted claims of pig farming along Sungai Bukit Lagong in Selayang after a netizen alleged the practice was taking place. The minister studied drone photos from the Selayang municipal council and found no evidence of pig farms in the area. Instead, he identified two cattle farms. Amirudin has instructed the municipal council to conduct an on-site inspection to confirm the situation. He addressed the netizen, requesting proof of the claim, stating that he will take further action if evidence is provided. The netizen had urged the public to avoid bathing in the river, claiming pig farms were discharging waste into it, and alleging that local complaints had been ignored by the municipal council.",
