He said police were still looking for another suspect, identified as Jafni Abdullah @ Mohd Yusoff, 47, also known as Man Puchong, who was believed to be the mastermind in the incident.
"The main suspect is the owner of an illegal waste disposal site in Kampung Sungai Tua, Batu Caves," he told reporters at the Gombak police headquarters today.
