Former Member of Parliament Mohamed Sinan announced he will not contest the upcoming by-election for the Hithadhoo North constituency in Addu City, despite winning the People's National Congress primary for the seat. The seat fell vacant after a Supreme Court ruling found him ineligible to remain in office due to an outstanding debt, and the by-election is scheduled for June.

I have decided not to contest the by-election scheduled for June. However, I will remain fully involved and take a leading role in supporting whichever candidate the party nominates,
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
The by-election is scheduled to be held in June.
