Former president Mohamed Nasheed has proposed switching to a parliamentary system after a six-year interim national unity government to oversee transitional justice and constitutional reforms.
The interim government would reform the judiciary and the security services, and ensure the independence of oversight bodies.
“During the first year and a half of these six years, we must provide relief to those Maldivians who have faced loss, sadness and brutality,” the exiled opposition leader said Friday night.
Nasheed was speaking via video link at a rally held in Addu City to launch his campaign for the main opposition Maldivian Democratic Party’s presidential primary.
