Eviction notice given to Mumbai's Campa Cola society residents 

 

Mumbai:Police on Monday issued a notice to occupants of illegal floors of beleaguered Campa Cola Housing Society at Worli in Mumbai. 

The notice, issued by senior police inspector Deepak More, warned the occupants of action under section 149 of CrPc if any law and order issue is created during eviction, the deadline for which expires tomorrow.

On October 1, the Supreme Court ordered the residents to vacate illegal flats, above the fifth floor of all the seven buildings within the premises, by November 11. The BMC had issued eviction notices to residents of the illegal floors under Section 488 of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act two days back.

"As the said time period expires on November 11, the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) has organized demolition of the premises on November 12," the BMC notice had stated.

As many as 100 families are occupying illegal floors. There are 35 illegal floors in seven buildings of the housing society.
