KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 3 — A man was killed after falling 15 metres from Bukit Tabur, Taman Melawati here, today.
The 49-year-old man who had started climbing the hill at 8am was said to have slipped and fell while descending the hill.
Ampang District Police chief ACP Hamzah Alias said the victim sustained serious head injuries and his body was sent to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital for post-mortem.
Police have yet to identify the victim whose last address was Teluk Gadong, Klang, Selangor, he said when contacted.

Due to this accident, all tabur is out of bound for the time being.
Lately there are too many people flocking to most all the taburs.namely Taburwest, Tabureast,Tabur far east/extreme. Alot of them are newbies and have no idea what they are getting themselves into. Sometimes my friend Ben, and I when we happen to there and many a time have to assist them to get down at station 10. So in a way I am glad Tabur is closed for now. I just hope they will be strict in enforcing the law and ensure everyone has a guide besides applying the permit. Getting the permit does not help to prevent accident, but if they have an experience guide to take them, it will help to avoid such incidents.
