Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (RAJUK) today sealed 12 restaurants in the Gawsia Twin Peak building on Dhanmondi Satmasjid Road.
Tazina Sarwar, deputy secretary and director of Zone-3 (Rajuk), told media about this activity on Wednesday afternoon, four days after a horrific fire in a building on Bailey Road that killed at least 46 people.
She was in charge of a mobile court operation at the location, which started this morning. The restaurants were shut off because the structure was designed for commercial purposes rather than building restaurants.
The mobile court team has been carrying out actions at the building since 11:00 am.
The team penalized the ninth-floor restaurant "Spice and Herbs" Tk 2 lakh and demolished part of the rooftop eatery "Retro Life Kitchen".
Since no managers or owners were present, the team was unable to place any fines on the eateries located between the tenth and top floors.
