The state has no legal basis for the charges against MP Faris Maumoon and he cannot be found guilty, his sister Yumna Maumoon has said.

Yumna said that investigators do not have enough evidence against Faris to pursue a conviction.

“In truth, these are just attempts to intimidate him. These are by no means allegations that can be proven. His lawyer tells me that Faris remains steadfast” Yumna said in an interview to RaajjeTV on Tuesday night.
