HAND-GRENADE FOUND AT BATU LINTANG TEACHERS TRAINING INSTITUTE

-POLICE RUSHED TO THE SCENE TO DISPOSE THE EXPLOSIVE

KIPLI POINTING TO THE DIRECTION WHERE HE DISCOVERED THE GRENADE

A 54-year-old construction worker had a “close-encounter” with death when he accidentally “stumbled” upon with a live hand-grenade at the construction site in the Batu Lintang Teacher Institute near Kuching here yesterday morning.

Kipli Suhaini from Kampung Endap when met at the site told UnReportedNews™® that he was cleaning a section of the site for road construction about 20 metres away from a newly build building when he came to notice a round rusty object, about the size of a tennis ball semily-embedded in the earth at about 11:45am.

“I poked the object and realised it was a hand grenade which I believe could be used in the second world war and immediately informed my supervisor,” said Kipli adding after carefully moving the object to a safer place, his supervisor contacted the police.

A team of police was immediately rushed to the scene followed by a team bomb disposal unit and the “object” turned out to be a British-made hand-grenade used in the second world-war still with its safety pin intact. The grenade was later disposed.
