Salaf has no mandate to decide on matters concerning state sovereignty: Former Chief Justice

Former Chief Justice Dr. Ahmed Abdulla Didi stated that Jamiyyath Salaf holds no mandate to endorse or oppose major issues of Maldivian sovereignty, arguing that only the people hold that power and that President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu's five-year administration cannot constitutionally authorize long-term foreign settlements in Ras Male'. Jamiyyath Salaf, for its part, issued a statement endorsing the settlement of non-Muslims, setting out eight conditions the government must first fulfil, as the sale of the Ras Male' project to UAE-based firm Eagle Hills continues to spark public debate.
