According to Malaysian police, a terrifying incident occurred in the bustling city of Kuala Lumpur. A woman was walking along the pavement in the Dang Wangi area when the ground suddenly gave way beneath her, causing her to plunge eight meters into a sinkhole. As if that wasn't enough, she was then believed to have been swept away by an underground water current.
Local police chief Sulizmie Affendy Sulaiman shared that eyewitnesses had reported seeing the woman disappear into the sinkhole. It was a frightening and unexpected event, leaving many wondering about the woman's well-being. She was later identified as a 48-year-old tourist from India who was visiting Malaysia with her husband and friends.
Rescuers quickly arrived at the scene and barricaded off part of the area for safety. They even brought in an excavator to remove the debris from the sinkhole, but there was still no sign of the victim. When asked about the woman's condition or the cause of the incident, Sulizmie declined to comment.
Meanwhile, Kuala Lumpur police chief Rusdi Mohamad Isa shared that there was a strong water flow underground, which could have potentially swept the woman away. He was quoted by the national news agency, Bernama, stating that the search would require careful planning due to the public infrastructure in the area. Shutting down pipes or drains could potentially cause flooding, so they had to proceed with caution.
Rusdi also mentioned that there had been a soil slip in the same location last year, but it had been fixed. He added that traders in the area had been advised to temporarily close for safety reasons. It was a serious situation that required careful consideration and action.
As the search for the woman continued, her loved ones must have been filled with worry and concern. It was reported that she had been in Malaysia for two months and was scheduled to return home on Saturday. Hopefully, with the help of the rescue team and careful planning, she would be found safe and sound.
