Pakistan: The Supreme Court has ordered DG Khan Cement to pay nearly US$0.6m into a dam fund in relation to falling water levels at the Katas Raj Temples in Chakwal, Punjab. The cement producer must make a deposit of US$0.5m as payment for water it used and US$0.1m as a penalty for ‘misleading’ the court, according to the Nation newspaper. The court has accused the company of pumping water from boreholes leading to water loss at a pond at the temples.
