MP for Kinbidhoo constituency and former Commissioner of Police, Abdulla Riyaz has been summoned to the Maldives Police Service (MPS).
According to his summon notice, he is to present himself to the police headquarters at 8pm on Thursday.
The notice states that Riyaz is accused of 'spreading false information, creating dissent among the public, interfering with police procedures and defaming the police via the media'.
Police had, back in August, summoned MP Riyaz, over the same allegations, after searching his residence under a court order.
Back in April he was acquitted of obstruction charges, for allegedly refusing to allow officers access to his mobile phone.
Furthermore, the MP is one of the 12 MPs charged with obstruction of a law enforcement officer, for entering parliament grounds on the 24th of August.
