Death toll rises in Malaysia landslide

  • 12 years ago
At least 12 people have died in the landslide that hit a Malaysian orphanage near Kuala Lumpur. Incessant rain is hampering rescue work at the orphanage.

Al Jazeera's Divya Gopalan, reporting from Kuala Lumpur, said, "Police commissioner has said they are still looking for the four little boys and they are worried that they may not have survived up until now. It's been many hours they would have been under the mud and with each passing hour the chances of survival diminish."
