A RESTAURANT operating on reserve land in the heart of Bukit Bintang has been demolished by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) during a three-day exercise to clean up the city centre.

The illegal structure was built over public drains and manholes and the owner had been given repeated notices to tear it down, DBKL stated.
