The Capital Development Authority (CDA) Saturday sealed farmhouses owned by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Senator Azam Swati over violation of building laws.
As per the CDA, the house’s basement was not approved in the building plan. The CDA said it issued a show-cause notice to Swati on November 4, 2022, in accordance with the ICT Building Control Regulations 2020.
It further said that a final notice regarding the matter was issued to the senator on November 16, warning that if violations were not removed within seven days, it would seal the farmhouse.
The notice stated that two basements, ground floor and guard rooms were illegally constructed in the farmhouses.
The CDA asked Swati to demolish the illegal constructions, otherwise, the farmhouses will be vacated for not complying with the orders.
The latest development comes after the Sindh police arrested the PTI senator from Quetta on Friday. Former information minister and senior PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry claimed that Swati was shifted to Larkana before being moved to Qambar Shahdadkot in Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah’s plane.
Swati’s arrest came hours after the Balochistan High Court (BHC) directed police to quash all five first information reports (FIRs) registered against him over his controversial tweets against top military officials.
