The report of the Special Presidential Commission established by President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu states that there are inconsistencies in the statements of suspended Presidential Office Under Secretary Dawood Ahmed and his friends who met Raudha Ahmed Zilaal that day, suggesting that they are hiding something from the investigation. The commission’s report on the incident of Hawwa Yumna Rasheed falling from a building in Male’ on April 18 has been made public today.

The report states that there are inconsistencies in the statements of Dawood and his friends who met Raudha that day, indicating that they are hiding something from the investigation. The footage shows that Raudha tried to find Yumna after she fell, but after meeting Dawood and his friends later, Raudha has been saying that he doesn’t remember anything from that night, according to the report.

The report states that after the incident, when Raudha met and talked with Dawood, it is believed that they would have discussed Yumna as well, but this was not reported to the authorities. As a result, the commission states that from a humanitarian perspective, it is unacceptable that Yumna had to lie without treatment for the injuries she sustained from falling onto the roof. Therefore, as it appears that Dawood and his friends were equally involved in not reporting the matter to the relevant authorities as Raudha, the commission has advised the authorities to further investigate this matter.”
