KARACHI: Save Kidney Hill

Published February 22, 2007

KARACHI: Shehri has been trying to save Kidney Hill, an amenity plot of park space in KCSH Union area The case is fixed for hearing in the high court on February 22nd 2007.

Since the withdrawal of the 15 local residents, Shehri is the only petitioner left. Over the past two days, even Shehri members have begun to receive threats on the telephone, warning us to get out of the case — or else!

In order to diffuse the threat and establish that more residents of Karachi than just Shehri are actually interested in saving open spaces for our future generations, we are urging NGOs and concerned citizens to become intervenors or to file a separate case that can be joined with our case.

Are you interested? call us immediately as 453-0646 or 438-2298, or send us a return e-mail on info@shehri.org
