PETALING JAYA (Nov 5): A wall collapsed at the basement of the popular Citta Mall (pictured) here owing to heavy rainfall, The Star reported on Saturday.
Citta Mall said in a statement that flood waters “that overflowed a monsoon drain from outside the mall premises had pushed down a small part of a wall in its basement car park on Friday (Nov 2) afternoon”.
According to the report by the English daily, the statement said that: "At the material time, the portion of the wall that broke up into pieces fell on an unoccupied section of the car park.
"The flood waters that gushed in had washed stone debris near eight cars parked about 10m away.
"The run-offs caused partial flooding in parts of the carpark by about 5cm."
The statement by the mall also added that the debris was cleared by a maintenance team by the same night.
"The mall’s operations were unaffected by this incident, and the team will continue monitoring the premises for everyone’s safety," it said.
The mall’s engineers have checked that adjacent retaining walls were intact and the building’s structural integrity was not impacted.
