Maldives Journalist Association (MJA) has expressed concern that the Maldives National Broadcasting Corporation (MNBC) had taken private radio station DhiFM to police, after DhiFM switched to a live feed of the MNBC One 8:00pm bulletin on November 11.
The MJA said that the decision “might turn the media against each other” and that it would “be more peaceful” to resolve the matter through the Maldives Broadcasting Corporation (MBC).
The MJA noted that DhiFM has apologised to MNBC and said it would “be better to resolve the issue without the police investigating it as a criminal offence.”
