KUALA LUMPUR:
All travelers who were stranded after landslides cut the road from Raub to Bukit Fraser, have been allowed to continue with their journey.

One of the victims Mohd Ariff Amri, 37, said he managed to get his vehicle at 11.30am before returning home to Shah Alam.

Yesterday, 13 vehicles were reported trapped between the two landslides, and Mohd Ariff and his family members were among the 32 adults and eight children who were evacuated back to Fraser’s Hill on foot by crossing the obstructed area.

Raub district police chief Supt Kama Azural Mohamed said all 13 vehicles had left through the road to Kuala Kubu Bharu. The road to Raub remain closed, he said.

However, 10 adults and five children who were evacuated from the Jeriau Waterfall campsite have yet to take their vehicles because the road leading there is still in the process of being cleared.
