It was searched in relation to an ongoing investigation but police refused to provide details, according to newspaper Mihaaru.
The raid follows the suspension of Dhidhdhoo island council on March 19 by the Local Government Authority (LGA).
The council’s president Ali Hashim, vice president Mohamed Hashim, councillors Ahmed Firaq and Aminath Zuhura were suspended along with 13 other councillors from four other island councils and the Addu City council.
