Ujjain Municipal Corporation demolished illegal floors of tea shop owner-turned-land mafia Mukesh Bhadale’s residence in Prakash Nagar under heavy security on Saturday.
Five storied building of Bhadale
Razing started from terrace
The demolition team disconnected the power supply before initiating the action. As the building is situated in a densely-populated area, hammers were used instead of JCB to bring down the building.
Bhadale is behind bars under several cases of extortion and murder
Bhadale started off as a tea kiosk owner and due to hobnobbing with some influential politicians soon turned into a land mafia. He is behind the bars in connection with cases of extortion and murder. The administration has also invoked NSA against him. Several cases of forcible eviction, threats and contract killing too are registered against him.
Four floors illegally constructed
The UMC had sanctioned only ground and first floor of the house. However, Badale constructed a
five-floor building.
