Bahria Town Frustrated Over High Court Stay Order

Bahria Town Announced Frustrated Statement to Media:

Bahria Town on Wednesday, April 30, 2014 announced it has cancelled the project for the construction of flyover and underpasses it had undertaken to build in the Clifton area of Karachi.

In a frustrated media statement issued to different newspapers and TV channels, the spokesperson said right from the day one the project faced opposition and conspiracies from the negative forces, which totally ignored the interests of the people of Karachi, who were to be the real beneficiaries of the Rs1.8b project.

But the spokesperson did not reveal the motive behind constructions of that flyover and under passes that were never been of a public interest. Neither Bahria Town proved any legal format of acquisition and development process on the site.

Spokesperson also failed to prove that who was behind these conspiracies and if the DHA is involved then for what?

“Bahria Town continued its resolve to deliver the gift to the people of Karachi despite all the negative propaganda and conspiracies, a furious media statement declared.

“However, the judgment in response to a DHA application that the work on this public interest project be stopped immediately has convinced us to believe that to work honestly for the welfare of the people is the most difficult task in this country,” he said.

This statement pointed out that Sindh High Court stopped them to work with honesty

Spokesperson said the Bahria Town was dragged into the court ever since this project was initiated 45 days back and more than one stay order was issued. But they failed to explain what technical reasons enabled DHA to have such statement.

Malik Riaz Hussain and company set another trend, they put a message of happiness and thanks for their favorite judiciary bench comprised of Justice Aqeel Ahmed Abbasi & Justice Zafar Ahmed Rajput from Sindh High Court. This post was published on their website and it exposes the reality of inside story!

Sudden Change in Sindh High Court Version

 In a sudden, shocking and wondering move, Sindh High Court (SHC) on Friday suspended the stay order against the construction of Clifton flyover and underpass by Bahria Town.

SHC two-member bench comprising of Justice Aqeel Abbasi and Justice Zafar Rajput hearing the Bharia Town petition suspended the stay order earlier issued by Justice Munib Akhtar.

It was amazing that the decision was taken over-nightly in a suspicious way and the single bench was changed in to two members bench without explaining its reasons.

During the hearing, Bahria Town lawyer made a plea that the area in question falls under the jurisdiction of Karachi Metropolitan Corporation and, as such, Defence Housing Authority (DHA) petition against the construction of Clifton flyover and underpass was illegal, while according to law preparation of environment affects of this project was not mandatory.

Later, the court suspending the stay order adjourned the hearing until April 22.

It is important to inform our readers and well wishers that such things are expected as Malik Riaz is famous of hidden political pressurizing and bribery. This is important to notify that the present Chief Justice Sindh High Court Sindh is very closed association with PPP head and former president Asif zardari and Malik Riaz is an open ally and donor of Asif Zardari.
