"Women also held that "the structures are complete and are three feet six" and only has "bedroom and kitchen, and it is up to us if it makes the bathroom inside or outside, because it must be borne by us," he questioned.

Note that if the occupants of these properties, massively intrusive on February 10, 2007 - continues with this stance of not yielding to the request, the City shall request the intervention of the Judiciary although there is already a complaint and the date Justice has not been issued in this regard. For this reason it is anticipated that this situation will only further widen the conflict resolution.
