The prosecutor general’s office has charged a Maldivian man over the death of a Bangladeshi migrant worker in Kaafu atoll Himmafushi island.
The 38-year-old was found dead in August inside Life Beverages water bottling plant, where he worked.
PG spokesman Ahmed Thaufeeq said the unnamed Maldivian was charged with non-consensual touching and criminal coercion.
Two Maldivians were initially arrested over the death – the bottling plant’s manager and the security guard.
