President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu said today that no one will be discriminated against in enforcing the rule of law. As allegations have been directed at some people in political positions in connection with the recent case of a young woman falling from a house in Male’, the President said in a social media post that no one is discriminated against in implementing the Constitution and laws. He also said that there will be no discrimination in the future.
He said that there will be no discrimination based on anyone’s lineage, position, wealth, or any other factor. “There will be no discrimination based on friendship, family relations, political ideology, or any other matter,” the President said.
In that case, the injured girl first went to the house of Transport Minister Mohamed Ameen, M. Maandhugedhekunuge. It is a house registered to Ameen and his three full siblings. She fell after leaving that house and going to another house. Two children of Ameen’s two full siblings were also present at a party in that house. Among them, Izdiyaan Mohamed Maumoon has so far been in the position of Under Secretary for Communication Strategy at the President’s Office. A week after the case surfaced, Izdiyaan has been dismissed from his position today.
In addition, Dhawood Ahmed, the Under Secretary for Digital Strategy at the President’s Office, who is the elder brother of Raudh Ahmed Zilal, who is suspected of being involved in the case, has been suspended without pay. However, the police have not said that Dhawood is suspected of anything in that case.
