More than 200 staff working for the Maldives Customs Department have signed a petition submitted to Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), alleging that employees had been promoted in violation of regulations.
According the petition the Customs Act mandates promotions be given according to specific regulations, which staff alleged had not been respected.
The staff members alleged that promotions had been given in a way that would benefit individual persons, and had divided staff in the department.
Customs workers told local media that they had met with the Commissioner General of Customs Mohamed Aswan and Home Minister Ahmed Shafeeu to discuss the issue.
