Malik Riaz Warns of Imminent Nationwide Shutdown Amid Escalating Legal and Financial Crisis
Malik Riaz, founder of Bahria Town, issued a public warning on August 5, 2025, stating that Bahria Town’s operations across Pakistan—including Bahria Town Lahore—are on the verge of complete shutdown due to severe financial paralysis: frozen bank accounts, seized vehicles, unpaid staff salaries, halted daily services, and an electricity cutoff in Lahore over outstanding utility bills. He emphasized the situation is deteriorating rapidly and described the company as being 'one step behind' full cessation—though no formal shutdown has yet occurred.
FIA Raid, NAB Auction Proceedings, and IHC Verdict Intensify Institutional Pressure
The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) conducted a high-profile raid on Bahria Town offices, seizing hidden financial records, property files, and evidence of alleged corruption involving billions of rupees. Concurrently, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) moved to auction six Bahria Town properties in Rawalpindi and Islamabad under Section 33E of the NAB Ordinance, following Malik Riaz’s failure to fulfill the £190 million plea bargain settlement. The Islamabad High Court reserved judgment on petitions challenging the auction—later dismissing them—clearing the path for enforcement.
Electricity Disconnection in Bahria Town Lahore Due to Unpaid Utility Bills
Bahria Town Lahore suffered a complete electricity cutoff as a direct consequence of non-payment of utility bills—an operational symptom reflecting the broader financial collapse. This disruption affected residential and commercial consumers across the Lahore development and underscored the severity of liquidity constraints impacting service delivery.
