December 06, 2022

The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has sealed Centaurus Mall in an overnight raid. The development came hours after a heated debate between Prime Minister of Azad Kashmir Sardar Tanveer Ilyas and Prime
Minister Shehbaz Sharif during his visit to Mangla. PM Shehbaz Sharif didn’t allow the AJK PM to speak during his speech, says in media reports. Reports revealed that a team of CDA officials and local police raided the Centaurus Mall and expelled the administrative staff as well as guards, after which the building was sealed.

Earlier in October, the mall had caught fire for unknown reasons but a spokesperson for the AJK PM blamed the federal government for the fire in Centaurus Shopping Mall, which is owned by AJK PM Sardar Tanveer Ilyas. On the other side sources have revealed that Capital Development Authority (CDA) has sealed Centaurus Mall after safety precautions against fire eruption were not taken. Authority has issued several notices to the management of Centaurus Mall to ensure safety measures following the outbreak of a fire in the mall a couple of months ago.
