The Crisis In Maldives
What happened in Maldives?
The latest political crisis in Maldives is a result of a deadlock between President Abdulla Yameen and the Supreme Court of Maldives. The Supreme Court of Maldives has unanimously ruled that nine opponents of Yameen’s regime have been unfairly convicted. Those opponents include exiled former President Mohamed Nasheed. He was sentenced to 13 years of imprisonment in 2015, after a trial which is broadly viewed as being politically motivated. Nasheed was subsequently allowed to move into self-exile and is now in Sri Lanka. Apart from Nasheed, the former Maldivian Defence Minister Mohamed Nazim has also been imprisoned. Many Maldivians believe that he was framed.
