“I beg the Commonwealth Ministerial Action Group (CMAG) not to deliberate on how power was transferred in the Maldives,” former President Mohamed Nasheed told the Royal Commonwealth Society yesterday.

Nasheed addressed an audience at the Commonwealth Club in central London during his visit to the United Kingdom.
