Attorney General Riffath Served Notice in No-Confidence Motion

Attorney General Ibrahim Riffath has been served notice to respond to a no-confidence motion filed by the opposition and backed by 13 MPs, accusing him of neglecting national interests in a case at the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea. Analysts say the motion is likely to fall short of the two-thirds majority it needs, requiring support from approximately 28 MPs in the 87-member parliament.
