Zurich government faces backlash over housing policy and tenant displacement

Regina Bachmann, daughter of the late building contractor Leopold Bachmann, is facing backlash for evicting 200 tenants from the affordable "Sugus" houses in Zurich to maximize profits. The city government is considering purchasing the properties to support housing policy, raising concerns about taxpayer funds being used to benefit a wealthy heiress. Critics argue that the city's spending, including a budget of 500 million for land purchases, disproportionately impacts hardworking taxpayers while benefiting those who do not contribute equally.
