The cross complaints filed by members of an SRA project in Dhobi Ghat have been transferred to the assistant commissioner of police (Bhoiwada division) after both parties levelled allegations of cop partiality. The cases were filed in mid-December last year after a confrontation between two groups of people involved in the SRA project.
The Slum Rehabilitation Authority project was launched in Dhobi Ghat, Worli in 2012 and Om Omega Shelters was appointed as the developer for the project. The rehabilitation building has been partially completed, but the SRA has issued a stop work notice for the commercial building to the builder after some of the residents alleged non-payment of rent by the developer. The residents eligible for rehabilitation have formed a society named Shiv Ganesh and Shiv Sainath Housing Society. Meanwhile, another faction has formed Dhobi Ghat Om Duttaji Nagar Kruti Samiti to fight with the builder. Members of the registered housing society and that of Kruti Samiti often engage in altercations.
