The Juvenile Court has today finished taking statements from the heirs of Abdul Muheeth, 21, who was murdered earlier this year in Male’, according to local media.
Muheeth’s heirs were reported to have all approved passing the death sentence against the trial’s defendants should they be found guilty.
With the statements of Muheeth’s family now taken, the Juvenile Court today asked prosecutors to submit any evidence they have against the three defendants when it next reconvened.
If the state did not have any more evidence to provide against the defendants, the presiding judge said that closing statements from both sides would be heard.
