Police Seek Court Backing to Declare “Dark Town” a Gang Under New Law
The Maldives Police Service has sent a case to the Prosecutor General's Office seeking a formal court declaration that the criminal group known as "Dark Town", operating mainly in Machangolhi Warden, Malé, is a gang under the Law on Preventing Gang Crimes and Other Serious Offenses, which took force in August this year. Police also reported a marked decline in gang-related crimes since the law's enforcement and said parallel investigations are underway to identify other groups in the atolls that may qualify for gang designation.
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
