The infamous Ibrahim ‘Chika’ Nafiz has been released from prison under parole.
Nafiz was sentenced to five years imprisonment after he was found guilty of possessing an illegal sword in July 2008.
Director General of the Department of Penitentiary and Rehabilitation Service (DPRS) Mohamed Rasheed confirmed to Minivan News that Chika was released yesterday afternoon.
”He is released under the same obligations as others who are released on parole,” said Rasheed. ”There are people who have to report to DPRS weekly, and have to give urine samples weekly.”
