Without proof of completion of work and without authorization for use and occupancy, the Llave.Mx real estate development located at General Francisco Murguía 86, Escandón neighborhood, in the Miguel Hidalgo territorial demarcation, was inhabited. Its construction damaged the apartments in the adjacent building, which have leaks, fissures and cracks.
Residents of number 88 pointed out that five years after beginning their fight against the building owned by the real estate cartel, none of the complaints for damage to property and against public servants filed with the Attorney General’s Office have been brought to court.
Complaints filed with the Human Rights Commission of Mexico City were also unsuccessful, and the Administrative Court only disqualified former Legal Director Mauricio Garrido for one year, who removed the suspension seals imposed on him to continue the work.
The official was found administratively responsible for the abuse of functions, according to the ruling of the higher court, but continues to work and can appeal, they said.
Meanwhile, our homes present a structural risk, based on a ruling issued by the Construction Safety Institute, due to the violation of the boundaries established in the Construction Regulations.
In addition, the excavation works in what was once a parking lot caused a leak in the water table, causing strong leaks into our apartments, fissures, cracks and a strong presence of humidity, which has damaged our health, they denounced.
The prosecutor’s office, they said, is seeking to settle things with compensation of 35 thousand pesos, while city officials intimidated us, causing us to live a war of terror demanding that the law be complied with, that those who protected this illegal work be punished, and that we be compensated.
The building at Francisco Murguía 88 is more than 60 years old and has 12 apartments, of which those on the ground floor are the most affected by the lack of supervision of the work by the authorities, they indicated.
Real estate corruption, however, allowed the suspension of activities seals, which did not have any folio, to be removed and the development of five floors, 15 apartments and 27 parking spaces to be completed, they said.
The architect and owner was Victor Stolkin Krupinsky, who is a public accountant, but now it turns out that the owner is the director responsible for the works, Nicolás Arturo Iris Aguilar, irregularities that should also be investigated by the authorities, they said.
