Many people had already taken down their houses and important material and properties after several awareness carried out by police and sheriff officers.
Wednesday was the last day of the awareness program and eviction began today as per the court order.
Police say most of the illegal squatters on the three portions of Nambawan Super Limited (NSL) have accepted that they need to move.
While people are still moving their houses, machine operators on site have been advised to avoid damaging the houses of people who are making the attempt to move before the machines arrived on site.
