Court Again Cancels Hearing in Yameen’s Money Laundering Trial
The Criminal Court again cancelled a hearing in former President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom's bribery and money laundering trial concerning the 2015 lease of Fuggiri Island, Raa Atoll, because Sun Group lawyers were unavailable. Yameen, already serving an 11-year sentence in a separate MMPRC-linked case, is also awaiting a High Court appeal decision that will determine his eligibility to contest the presidential elections.
