MP Abdul Ghafoor Moosa of Hanimaadhoo, representing the Maldivian Democratic Party, was elected chairperson of the Parliamentary Committee on National Security Services (the 241 Committee). The election took place during a meeting of the committee after former chair Mohamed Aslam became Speaker of Parliament, a role that cannot be held concurrently with a committee chairpersonship.
One outlet so far Only Maldives Republic has reported this among the sources we monitor. A gap in what we monitor, not proof that others did not report it.
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
The decision to elect a new chairperson was made during a meeting of the 241 Committee. Moosa’s candidature was proposed by Ismail Ahmed, MP for Dhuvaafaru, and seconded by Ahmed Saleem, MP for Hoarafushi and the current Deputy Speaker of Parliament. The committee members unanimously backed Moosa for the chairperson position.
