Cilandak Barat Urban Village Head, Agus Gunawan conveyed, Jainudin just finished building a board house near the channel. No one live in that building when this incident happened.
"Before building this boarding house, formerly it was a bamboo plantation land but the land is not well stocked and since it is near PHB channel, it causes retaining wall to collapse," he explained.
