A visibly injured former President Mohamed Nasheed appeared at the Criminal Court today for the first hearing of his sudden terrorism trial.
Nasheed limped inside the courtroom at 4:35pm, nursing what appeared to be a broken arm and using his tie as a makeshift sling.
There were no buttons on his shirt, his glasses were missing, and he had a T-shirt wrapped around his body.
Nasheed appeared at court without legal representation as the Criminal Court today refused to register any of the five lawyers on his legal team.
