ISLAMABAD: The illegal construction of high-rise buildings continues unabated in Sector H-13, while Capital Development Authority (CDA) and police have failed to take action.
District authorities have approved several high-rise buildings without even approving the map and payment of taxes, sources revealed. There are around 15-20 illegal constructed plazas in Sector H-13.
It has also been revealed that several plazas are owned by highly influential members of the incumbent government. Therefore, local authorities and police are hesitant in taking action.
