The Lahore Development Authority demolishes the houses of PML-N’s Khokhar family. White Star
LAHORE: In a day-long operation, the Punjab government on Sunday demolished several structures around houses of the PML-N leaders MNA Afzal Khokhar and former MPA Saiful Malook Khokhar and their relatives near Johar Town, retrieving 38 kanal land from the ‘illegal occupants’.
The PML-N sees the move as one of the extreme actions to punish those supporting the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM).
The structures razed during the operation included houses of Akmal Khokhar and Tahir Javaid (close relatives of Afzal Khokhar and Saiful Malook), a market, back walls and shanties temporarily made by the workers.
