Police investigators raided the Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) head office again on Friday and seized several documents from the Master Plan Department.

Timeline of Nasla Tower approvals and speed money estimatesPolice investigators have said that a number of SBCA officials are not showing up at their offices since the investigation began earlier this week.
The documents seized from the SBCA Master Plan Department would undergo close scrutiny, they said.
Multiple SBCA officers are suspected to have received the “speed money” to authorize the construction of the Nasla Tower, which the Supreme Court of Pakistan ruled, was built on encroached land including a service lane.
