The two notifications mentioned that the construction was unlicensed and demanded the termination of the work. The court of Beit El set October 19th 2014 as a date for the session of the Inspection Sub-Committee to consider the status of the notified structures.
The mayor of Shuyukh pointed out that the work in these two roads started two months ago; the roads are located in the area of al-Majalis and Wadi al-Mgharat. 200m were accomplished in al-Majalis where only 50m were accomplished in al-Mgharat.
He also added that the two roads were expected to be of 2km in length; the opening of the two roads was expected to serve farmers and facilitate their movement in and outside their lands, which are to be used to prevent colonists attacks since Asfar colony is located in the nearby area. Farmers sought attorney Ashraf al-Nashashibi to object the order, the mayor said.
