HDC Board Members, Managing Director Suspended Amid Fraud Investigation

The Privatisation and Corporatisation Board suspended all Housing Development Corporation board members except its chairman, along with managing director Ibrahim Fazul Rasheed, after police opened a criminal investigation into alleged fraudulent land allocations under the Binveriya housing scheme. Investigators allege land worth MVR 450 million was allocated to about 50 ineligible people, and both the Maldives Police Service and the Anti-Corruption Commission are probing the matter.
