Karachi: During the hearing of the case in the Supreme Court Karachi Registry, the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa Monday remarked that we also know what is happening illegally in Karachi.
In the Supreme Court Karachi Registry, under the chairmanship of CJP Qazi Faez Isa, a hearing was held against the commercialization of Chaudhry Khaliq-uz-Zaman Road.
The court asked the builder's lawyer that who is responsible for the commercialization fee of the plot? The builder's lawyer replied that the commercialization fee of the plot has been paid to the master plan department.
The court asked who has given the money, where are the receipts? The lawyer of the builder said that money has been given to Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) and others, time should be given to submit the receipts. On this Chief Justice Qazi Faez remarked that the builder has constructed a 22-storey building but there are no receipts.
The Chief Justice said that we also know what is happening illegally in Karachi.
On this occasion, the petitioner's lawyer said that Chaudhry Khaliq-uz-Zaman Road cannot be commercialized. The court directed the petitioner to submit the record of payment for commercialization of the building.
The court issued a notice to the Master Plan Department, KMC and Clifton Cantonment Board and sought the records of the commercialization of Chaudhry Khaliq-ul-Zaman Road at the next hearing, while the court ordered the parties to submit the complete records on April 25.
