Detailed Report
The Capital Development Authority has uncovered a fake letter falsely claiming approval of a housing project named “White City” in Mouza Chirah and Mouza Kalyan located in Zone V of Islamabad.
The authority described the document as an attempt to deceive the public and potentially defraud citizens through unauthorized real estate marketing.
The CDA warned that such fake approvals could expose buyers and investors to major financial losses, especially as illegal and unapproved housing schemes continue to emerge around Islamabad’s suburban zones.
In response, the CDA directed its Enforcement and Building Control Department to demolish any illegal structures constructed in violation of approved regulations.
The ICT Administration and police authorities have also been asked to ensure enforcement of CDA bylaws and court orders to prevent unauthorized development activities linked to the scheme.
The authority further instructed the Registrar Cooperative Societies to take action against the sponsors and promoters behind the alleged fraudulent project.
Utility providers including IESCO and SNGPL have been directed not to provide electricity or gas connections to projects lacking valid CDA approvals. The CDA also requested media regulators and the Press Information Department to block advertisements and websites promoting unapproved housing schemes that may mislead the public.
