National football team player arrested

Police have arrested mid-fielder for the Maldives national football team and Victory club, Mohamed ”Bakaa” Arif, in connection with a drug-related case.
Sub-inspector Ahmed Shiyam confirmed that Arif was arrested last Thursday in connection with a police special operation.
Shiyam said the case was under investigation and he could not provide more details on the arrest.
Arif was recently transferred from the New Radicals club to the Victory, for whom he still has not played a single game.
