Home Minister Umar Naseer has appealed a Criminal Court arrest warrant at the High Court today.
The arrest warrant issued on Thursday orders the Maldives Police Services to arrest Naseer and present him at the Criminal Court at 11:00am on Tuesday (June 17), a High Court official said.
Naseer – currently in the Netherlands on an official visit – has failed to attend three consecutive hearings at the Criminal Court to answer charges of disobedience to order.
The Home Minister was abroad during all three hearings.
