Nothing to Expose State More than Prosecuting Pres. Yameen Only: Nasheed

Nishdha Jinan

Former President and incumbent Speaker of Parliament Mohamed Nasheed has stated that it is crude to only prosecute former President Yameen Abdul Gayoom in the Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation (MMPRC) corruption case.

In a message to the Maldives Democratic Party (MDP) National Majilis WhatsApp group, Nasheed claimed there must be no reason not to prosecute in the MMPRC case.

“It is crude to end the matter by prosecuting President Yameen only”, he said.

President Nasheed added that there is nothing that will expose the state more.

While the former president has stated as such, Minister of Youth, Sports, and Community Empowerment Ahmed Mahloof has previously stated that he will expose the state if he is prosecuted for the MMPRC corruption case.
