MDP Accuses Muizzu of Violating Disclosure Laws Regarding Political Appointments
The Maldivian Democratic Party's parliamentary group held a press conference accusing President Muizzu of violating disclosure laws by refusing to reveal the number of government political appointees, after an emergency motion calling for disclosure was defeated in parliament. MDP MPs said the government's appointments contradict its transparency pledges, while the government plans to amend the RTI Act without having disclosed the details.

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.
Who said what
the reports' own quoted words, each once
It is illegal not to disclose what the law strictly requires; therefore, it constitutes a crime. President Muizzu is currently in violation of the law and will be punished accordingly. Failing to disclose it is a crime.
There will be nothing hidden and unaccountable. Information will be shared. If you encounter such a situation, just give me a hint. I am sure such a situation will not happen.
You will not have to resort to submitting RTI requests. I don't think you should. You will receive all the information. There will be no restrictions on anything.
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
