HCC demolishes ‘illegal’ houses in Tafara

HARARE City Council (HCC) yesterday demolished several “illegal” houses in New Tafara.

Acting town clerk Phakamile Mabhena Moyo said the affected families had illegally settled themselves on a piece of land reserved for council employees.

“That area was allocated to City of Harare workers who have valid allocation letters signed by the director of Housing and Community Services,” Moyo said.
