Sargodha Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) retrieved 88 kanals of residential and commercial state land from Bhalwal tehsil.
ACE officials said that 88 kanals of state land worth Rs1.1 billion, adjoining with Government High Bhalwal City, was allotted to Abdul Aziz, son of Raj Muhammad, in Mangla Dam and Cow Pal Scheme in 1960.
Later, the Lahore Board of Revenue had cancelled all such allotments. The authorities concerned further came to know that an influential person named Mehr Ghulam occupied the said land by forging documents in collusion with officers and other staff of the Revenue Department. This resulted in a loss of national treasury by billions of rupees.
