Later, four different people appeared and presented themselves as Mr Abdullah\u2019s heirs. However, finding the real heir of Abdullah to whom the payment would be disbursed was a matter that remained unresolved.<\/p>\n<p>But then there was yet another twist in this tale. The CDA recently received a rude shock when it learned that Mr Abdullah had not kicked the bucket and was in fact very much alive. He personally approached the CDA officials concerned and requested the authority to release his payment.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">CDA continues to verify multiple claims<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<p>The authority recommends that in such a confusing situation \u2013 which has been made even worse by several claims that the walking, talking Mr Abdullah had actually died before 1947 \u2013 the land in question should be devolved to the state.<\/p>\n<p>Just as a side note to add to the CDA\u2019s woes, we\u2019d like to bring it to our readers\u2019 attention that since 2005, nine sectors of the CDA have not been completed. According to an official of the CDA, these include Sectors C-13, C-14, C-15, C-16, D-13, E-13, F-13, H16, and I-17.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A swath of land spanning 48 kanals in yet-to-be-launched Sector H-16 still remains under the spell of litigation, as multiple people have emerged to claim the ownership of the land over the course of time.
