In the early hours of Sunday, Malé police arrested two men, Mohamed Sabah (46, from GDh. Vaadhoo) and Mohamed Naushad (42, from N. Milandhoo), who were attempting to rob a store on Maaveyo Magu while disguised in women's clothing. The arrests occurred around 2:39 AM. Both suspects were presented in court and remanded for 15 days as investigations continue.
