Squatters blocking Mocha highway project face demolition

Minister of Housing Collin Croal yesterday made a final plea to the remaining Mocha/Arcadia squatters who haven’t taken up the move-in-ready house deal, as he announced that demolition will begin today so that the road project for that area could commence.

Croal said that government’s recent offer to the five squatters whose homes are an encumbrance to the alignment path for the new road is in no way rewarding the unlawful act, but it was providing a humanitarian solution.

This newspaper understands that some of the five persons have already taken up the deal.
