The Chittagong City Corporation (CCC) demolished another risky building in Lal Dighir Par area of the city yesterday. In a drive, a mobile court led by CCC Executive Magistrate Najia Shirin demolished the two-storied building “JM Sen Avenue” as it was listed as a risky building by Chittagong Development Authority (CDA). On September 10, the owners of the building were directed to demolish it within a week.
However, as the owners took no initiative in this regard, CCC authorities demolished the building, said Najia.
The building, constructed in 1928, housed several businesses.
On September 9, the CCC began a drive against 64 buildings listed as risky by CDA. So far, two buildings have been demolished.
