Lawyers ‘entertaining’ Nasheed during daily visits, complains home minister
25 May 2015, 4:55 PM
Home minister Umar Naseer has advised former president Mohamed Nasheed’s lawyers not to use their visits to “entertain” the imprisoned opposition leader.
In a letter to Nasheed’s attorney, Hassan Latheef, the home minister said that the legal team was “having fun, laughing and joking, and entertaining him” during daily visits to the Maafushi jail.
“I advise you to make proper use of the opportunity to meet lawyers,” Naseer stated.
The letter was dated May 3, but the legal team said it was only delivered yesterday.
