A SOCIAL media user shared a dashcam recording of excavation work being carried out within a fenced gas pipeline area days before the gas pipeline tragedy in Putra Heights, Subang Jaya, yesterday.

According to reports in Sinar Harian, the one-minute, 41-second video, believed to be taken on March 28 and 30, was uploaded by TikTok user @miiraahz.

The footage shows some construction work being carried out by the roadside and an excavator not far from the site.

Observations indicate that the area being excavated expanded over those two days, with no warning signage installed.

@Miiraahz also shared that she frequently passed the road near Putra Heights and admired the greenery of the fenced open area, but expressed sadness as the location had now turned into a "battlefield".

"I always pass this road, always see the beautiful greenery but now... May all the victims' affairs be eased. Amen," she wrote as reported by Sinar Harian.

The footage has raised numerous questions and received various reactions from other social media users, with some urging the owner to hand over the footage to the authorities.

Investigations into the cause of the incident are ongoing.– April 2, 2025
