Criminal Court judges Nasheed, Sameer be changed to Family Court

Judicial Services Commission (JSC) has made the decision to transfer Criminal Court judges Abdulla Nasheed and Ahmed Sameer to Family Court.

“Sun” has been informed that the decision was made according to their wishes. But it is unclear exactly when they will be transferred.

Once Judge Nasheed and Judge Sameer are transferred to Family Court, there will only be five judges working in Criminal Court; Acting Chief Judge for Criminal Court, Judge Abdul Baaree Yoosuf, Judge Ahmed Rasheed, Judge Muhuthaaz Fahmy, Judge Saeed Ibrahim and Judge Ibrahim Ali.

Former Chief Judge of Criminal Court, Judge Abdulla Mohamed was also transferred to Family Court last February.
