  "account": "Johor officials have thwarted an attempt to siphon off 2,400 litres of diesel in a petrol station in Senai, according to the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN). The operation, named Ops Tiris 4.0, took place at approximately 2pm yesterday. The suspected criminal activity allegedly violated the Control of Supplies Act 1961. Law enforcement discovered a suspicious lorry outfitted with a storage tank and related equipment, actively filling its tank with diesel. The seized items included the lorry, four Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC) tanks, a flow meter, four pumps, two mobile phones, and roughly 2,400 litres of liquid possibly containing diesel. Additionally, KPDN seized 15 fleet cards and five invoices related to the fuel purchases. Two individuals in their thirties, passengers in the lorry, were taken into custody for investigative purposes. The seized equipment was estimated to be worth about RM60,660, and the case will be investigated under Section 20(1) of the Control of Supplies Act 1961.",
