Hussain Shareef, the People’s National Congress (PNC) Member of Parliament for the North Hulhumale' constituency, has criticized government institutions for their inaction while serious allegations are being leveled against President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu. He further questioned whether Home Minister Ali Ihusaan is effectively fulfilling his official responsibilities.
During Tuesday's parliamentary sitting, debate continued on a government-sponsored resolution calling for an end to the illegal activities of opposition parties and urging that legal action be taken against them in accordance with the law.
During the debate on the resolution, MP Hussain Shareef stated that serious allegations have been leveled against the President for a significant period of time.
The member questioned the role of government institutions in a climate where individuals are permitted to circulate baseless claims and manipulate videos to suit their own narratives. He further criticized the lack of oversight as rumors and hearsay continue to spread unchecked without any legal justification.
Hussain Shareef has leveled sharp criticism against government institutions, stating that the conduct and responsibilities of Home Minister Ali Ihusaan are now being called into question.
Today, I find it necessary to question the Minister of Homeland Security in this honorable Parliament regarding his responsibilities. This is a question that must be raised, even though he serves within our own government. When rhetoric surfaces that threatens the peace of our society, the safety of our environment, our stability, and the mutual respect and harmony between our citizens, state institutions must remain vigilant and take notice.Hussain Shareef, PNC Member for the North Hulhumale' Constituency.
The member emphasized that such matters should not be discussed recklessly. Expressing deep frustration, the member stated that individuals are fabricating baseless claims under the guise of media freedom, freedom of expression, and freedom of the press. He further asserted that the situation has escalated to this point because relevant institutions have failed to remain vigilant.

The government-sponsored resolution highlights that under Article 67 of the Constitution, the rights and freedoms afforded to every individual are inseparable from their corresponding responsibilities and duties. It emphasizes that every citizen bears the responsibility to protect and respect the rights and freedoms of others, while fostering harmony and mutual respect among all individuals and communities. Furthermore, the resolution underscores the duty of every citizen to uphold the sovereignty of the Maldives, maintain national unity, public peace, and safety, and preserve the nation’s honor, while promoting democratic principles and values in a manner consistent with the tenets of Islam.
