Pahang cops to set up anti-cable theft task force at ECRL sites
MRL had expressed concern following reports of cable theft at certain locations along the ECRL alignment, spanning Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang and Selangor. (Bernama pic) PETALING JAYA : Pahang police will establish a task force to prevent theft at the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project sites in Kuantan. Pahang police chief Yahaya Othman said police had received 10 reports related to theft at the project's construction locations since last month, with estimated losses reaching RM200,000. He said cases involving theft of cables and iron had been reported along the ECRL project route in Cherating, Gebeng and Gambang, but no arrests had been made so far. 'We are still tracking down the individuals involved, and strict action will be taken against them according to legal provisions,' Bernama quoted him as saying. Those involved in cable theft may be prosecuted under Section 431A of the Penal Code for mischief by damaging cables, punishable by two years' imprisonment, a fine, or both, upon conviction. Yahaya said police had suggested that the project management acquire the services of auxiliary police to curb such thefts. 'We are ready to cooperate with Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd in addressing this issue. 'The public is also urged to report to police if they have information about any party trying to sell cables or other construction materials,' he said. He also warned the public not to buy stolen goods as it was an offence punishable under Section 411 of the Penal Code with up to five years' imprisonment, a fine,or both, if convicted. Earlier today, transport minister Loke Siew Fook said police must take firm action against cable thefts at ECRL project sites as this could disrupt the smooth progress and implementation of the project. MRL also expressed concern following reports of cable theft at locations along the ECRL alignment, spanning Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang and Selangor.
