Respected national figures entangled in state politics as public alarm grows

The article argues that President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu is drawing previously revered public servants, including retired military officers and a legal figure, into partisan politics, thereby diminishing their standing. It cites Major General (Retired) Moosa Ali Jaleel's mayoral candidacy and loss, Major (Retired) Mohamed Najah's role at Fenaka Corporation, and Al-Ustadh Ahmed Shakir's appointment to head a review panel on the Mauritius-Maldives maritime boundary decision as examples.
