Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
The Criminal Court has postponed the hearing to announce the verdict in the case against former President Abdulla Yameen, who is charged with accepting USD 1 million in bribes over the lease of R. Fuggiri and laundering the funds, without giving a reason. Hearings in the case concluded on October 13, and Yameen's defence has questioned why other accused parties had cases withdrawn or ended in acquittal.
