Real estate dealers got away with deals worth Rs 130 billion in the last four years showing the clients the connectivity of their residential societies with the infamous Rawalpindi Ring Road project.
Prime Minister Imran Khan has recently ordered an inquiry into the scam, which, according to officials, involves 18 individuals with political backgrounds and 34 real estate tycoons. They managed to buy or acquire 64,000 kanals altogether in the jurisdiction of the Rawalpindi/Attock loop, Paswal Zigzag, GT Road, and Islamabad Margalla Avenue.
