The Capital Development Authority (CDA) is escalating its real estate crackdown, targeting two prominent towers in the most sought-after sectors of the federal capital.
As per the media report, the authority has identified two towers for potential lease cancellation, located in the F-7 and F-10 sectors of Islamabad, both prime commercial zones.
Renowned investigative journalist Zahid Gishkori first revealed that the two buildings have come under the regulatory radar of CDA amid widening scrutiny of major real estate projects.
Authorities have already restricted the sale and purchase of apartments in one of the two targeted buildings, signalling an active escalation in enforcement measures.
The crackdown is being led under Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, whose administration has adopted a firm stance against alleged corruption across major real estate developments.
Several CDA officials, alongside personnel from other departments and bureaucratic circles, are reportedly under scrutiny for allegedly facilitating irregular projects in exchange for kickbacks.
Illegal Housing List in Islamabad
Separately, the Capital Development Authority has published a list of 98 illegal housing schemes on its website to protect citizens from rising property scams in Islamabad.
The authority said these housing and agro farming schemes have no legal status as they lack required approvals and No Objection Certificates NOCs in place.
Officials urged the public to verify legal status of projects before investing, noting that offers of cheap plots and housing units are misleading many people.
