The Prosecutor General’s office has raised a terrorism case against three men it argues violated the Terrorism Act after they kidnapped and allegedly tortured on October 15 last year.
The three men were identified as Mohamed Aiman, Ahmed Nadheem and Mohamed Afsah.
Prosecution lawyer of the Prosecutor General’s office Maryam Shahula claimed the three men kept the man hostage, robbed his wallet, used his cash card, and tortured him. He reportedly suffered bruises and cigarette burns to his skin.
The three men denied the claims and invoked their right to a lawyer.
