Lal Masjid out to occupy amenity plot
 [Dawn]While a large number of residents left Islamabad for their native areas and the remaining ones remained busy preparing for Eidul Azha, the management of Lal Masjid started encroaching on the adjacent amenity plot on which Jama Hafza and the children's library stood before being demolished in 2007. As the CDA offices were also closed for Eidul Azha, the Lal Masjid management started building a boundary wall around the amenity plot.The construction of the boundary wall started early Tuesday and continued throughout the day. The labourers were told to finish the job before Eid prayers on Wednesday. Those who asked about the construction activities at the site were told that the government "had been kind enough to give the land to Lal Masjid only for prayers." Posted by: Fred 2013-10-17 |
