Ex-President Yameen Calls on Government to Publicise List of Those Implicated in MMPRC Scandal

Former President Abdulla Yameen called on the government to publicise the list of those implicated in the MMPRC scandal, the largest corruption case in Maldives' recent history. Speaking at a People's National Front (PNF) rally, Yameen criticized Home Minister Ali Ihusaan and questioned why the list had not been disclosed, suggesting that names of President Muizzu and Speaker Abdul Raheem might be on it. Yameen asserted his innocence, stating that a fair trial would prove it. Only Yameen, former Vice President Ahmed Adeeb, and former MMPRC Managing Director Abdulla Ziyath have been sentenced; Adeeb and Ziyath were later pardoned by former President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih.
