Kampar, Sept 12 (J-On): Barely 24-hours after the last attack, the arsonist strikes again. This time, an empty unit of a flat is the new target.
The incident took place late evening today at one of the four blocks of the four-storeys flat at the end of Taman Kampar Perdana.

A policeman who saw the smoke from afar alerted the fire and rescue department. He then rushed to the empty house which is located at the fourth floor of the flat. He broke the door down and put off the fire in the room.

According to a reliable source who does not wish to be named, he suspects the culprits are students staying here and they might be in a group as they know this area so well and have managed to escape from the police.
This latest attack marks the first time a flat was targeted in a spate of attacks since last month.

| The area cordoned off for further arson investigation |
Kampar MP, Datuk Lee Chee Leong will make a visit to Taman Kampar Perdana again later at night.
No arrests have been made so far.
