However, reports of a senior official at the Ministry of Health sexually assaulting a volunteer at HEOC has been circulating online recently. The said volunteer is an employee at the Maldives Airports Company Limited (MACL).

While a health ministry committee is also probing the matter, the ministry said that measures can only be taken against the accused after the investigation completes.
