Jumhooree Party (JP) leader Gasim Ibrahim has slammed the religious conservative Adhaalath Party (AP) over its decision to field candidates in People’s Majlis constituencies reserved for the JP.
Speaking to local media on Sunday, Gasim said Maldivians would not accept the AP’s “unethical” decision.
“Their actions are not in the general interest, in the name of Adhaalath (justice) they are doing everything in the wrong way. This is what I believe. This is the truth. There is no deception in this,” said the JP leader.
“We gave them four seats. They did not accept it. There is nothing we can do,” he said.
