Malaysian police recently carried out a major operation in Teluk Intan, Perak, uncovering 41 mining rigs over three days. The scale is quite impressive.



It is reported that the first operation on Friday evening found 24 units, followed by two separate raids early Saturday morning, which uncovered 9 and 8 units respectively. Hilir Perak Police District Director Bakri Zainal Abidin explained the situation. Authorities said the case involves violations of Section 427 of the Penal Code and Section 37 of the Electricity Supply Act of 1990, indicating illegal electricity usage for mining.

No arrests have been made yet, and the case is still under investigation. However, the number of mining rigs seized this time suggests that Malaysia is stepping up efforts to crack down on illegal mining activities. Are you following news like this?
