PETALING JAYA:
Three foreign workers were injured, while three others still trapped, when part of the temporary structure of a building under construction in Persiaran Barat collapsed this morning.

The temporary structure was being used by the workers for the slab installation work on the fourth floor of the building.

Selangor Fire and Rescue Department assistant director Mohd Sani Harul said the three injured Bangladeshi workers were sent to the University of Malaya Medical Centre for treatment.

“We’re now searching for the three other workers believed to be trapped in the ruins,” he said.

He said they were alerted about the incident at 9.56 am and a six-member rescue squad were rushed to the scene.
