PG, presiding judges among state witnesses, reveals Nasheed’s legal team
25 Feb 2015, 6:57 PM
PG Muhsin – a former Criminal Court judge – filed terrorism charges against Nasheed, his former defence minister and senior officers of the military over the controversial detention of Criminal Court Chief Judge Abdulla Mohamed in January 2012.
On Monday (February 23), the Criminal Court informed Nasheed’s lawyers that they had to register at the court two days in advance despite being unaware of the trial until the former president’s arrest the previous day.
Former Human Resource Minister Hassan Latheef will not be representing Nasheed at the trial as he had provided a witness statement to the authorities regarding the arrest of the judge.
The second hearing of Nasheed’s trial is scheduled for tomorrow night (February 26) at 8:00pm.
