In a tweet sent out in Dhivehi on Wednesday, the former President and leader of the opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) said that the court’s decision to dismiss the stipulations imposed on Jumhooree Party leader Qasim Ibrahim shows that the opposition is succeeding in their work.

“Court’s decision to dismiss the conditions on Honorable Qasim guarantees that the opposition coalition is succeeding in their work. This had been the most valuable gift”, reads the tweet.
