Selangor DWNP director Haidar Khan Mokbolhassan said the complaint was officially received via the department’s hotline at 2 pm this evening but the picture of the crocodile had viraled on the social media of the local community since two days ago. ‘’However, there was no sighting of the animal by our team. Currently, I am not able to confirm if there is a crocodile in the area or not and the public in the surrounding need not worry. We are also investigating to determine if the picture of the crocodile was actually taken in Sungai Rengam,’’ he said when contacted by Bernama here today.

Haidar Khan added, Sungai Renggam was one of the tributaries of Sungai Klang and was separated by a flood gate, and it was not impossible for a crocodile to be in the area as Sungai Klang was a known habitat of the reptile.
