Supreme Court crudely vandalised

Crude oil was thrown on the walls, vegetation and name board of the Supreme Court around midnight on Tuesday, reports Haveeru.
The Supreme Court released a statement condemning the ‘uncivilised action’ and reported the matter to the police. The culprits have not yet been identified.

The vandals struck during a night of demonstrations in which Dhivehi Rayyithunge Party (DRP) took to the streets over the issue of cabinet endorsements.
The Supreme Court granted the government a temporary injunction on Monday, blocking the endorsing of cabinet ministers until a ruling on the process can be issued.
