In similarity to a previous story from Dubai, Abu Dhabi’s civil authorities are now carrying out evictions on multi-family villas, allegedly for safety reasons.
Abu Dhabi Municipality launched a week-long campaign against makeshift homes on the weekend, but it has been clamping down on partitioned accommodation since late last summer. While many families have found themselves without anywhere to live, often at short notice, the municipality insisted that a formal policy of keeping only one family in each home did not exist.
