KUALA LUMPUR: The area around the sinkhole at Jalan Masjid India here is relatively quiet on day three of the search for 48-year-old Vijayalaksmi, with members of the media patiently waiting for updates.
Dang Wangi OCPD Asst Comm Sulizmie Affendy Sulaiman was seen at the scene here at around 10am.
This comes after six sewer manholes were opened in stages to expand the search-and-rescue operation area.
The six locations are at Wisma Yakin, Jalan Melayu, Jalan Melayu intersection, Dataran Merdeka, Bank Pertanian Lebuh Pasar Besar and the Kinabalu roundabout.
Vijayalaksmi - a tourist from India - fell into the eight-metre-deep sinkhole on Jalan Masjid India after the ground gave way when she was walking to a nearby temple at 8.22am on Friday (Aug 23).
