Police ordered to produce Azim, Nashiz in Court

The Civil Court has ordered the Police to detain Alifushi MP Mohamed Nashiz and Medhu-henveiru MP Ali Azim in order to produce them in Court.

This order comes following failure by the two MPs to comply with an earlier Court summon.

Police Spokesperson Sub-Inspector Hassan Haneef said that Civil Court ordered the Police today, to detain Nashiz and Azim in order to produce them in Court tomorrow at 1:30pm.

“We will execute this order. Efforts are in progress to ensure that it is executed,” Haneef said.

Sun Online understands that the MPs are summoned for a case filed by Bank of Maldives (BML), following the MPs' failure to comply with a Civil Court verdict issued on 7 February 2010, which has also been backed by High Court, to repay MVR117 million loans taken under the MPs' guarantee by Funaddoo Tuna Products.
