Taking notice of non-allotment of plots to citizens specially overseas Pakistanis, National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chairman Justice (retd) Javed Iqbal has ordered an inquiry into irregularities in Park Enclave housing scheme in the federal capital.

The project is being built by the Capital Development Authority (CDA) in Kurri Village of Islamabad’s Zone-IV. The site comprises Islamabad Park and rural peripheries wedged between Murree Road towards the north and Lehtrar Road towards the south and extending beyond Simly Road up to the edge of the Islamabad Capital Territory limits in the northeast.

With first phase complete, Park Enclave posed several environmental issues: report


The project, launched in 2011, is yet to be completed despite passage of eight years, said a statement issued by the corruption watchdog on Thursday.

The NAB chief has taken notice of complaints over non-allotment of plots despite collection of billions of rupees from public specially those living abroad, it added.



The Capital Development Authority (CDA), despite not only allegedly spending millions on advertisement and receiving approximately Rs15 billion from the masses, has failed to complete the project on time. “This is not only a serious joke with the public but also a case of severe misuse of authority by the officials concerned.”
