Former Trade Representative at the Maldivian Embassy in Colombo, Sri Lanka has met several Parliamentarians from the Yameen faction of ruling Progressive Party of the Maldives.

Asela, the self-confessed black magician, had confirmed the meeting in a twitter post.

In his tweet, he thanked the Parliamentarians for the dinner and the time. However, he had not revealed who the MPs were.

Some of the ruling Party MPs are currently in Colombo, for what the faction’s Secretary General called a ‘campaign effort’.

MP Ahmed Nihan Hussain Manik on Friday had tweeted a picture of him and MP Falaah, captioned with ‘busy at work’.

Asela became famous after he claimed that in the last Presidential elections that he had carried out black magic in order to ensure a win for one side. No government agency had investigated his claims so far.
