Former President Mohamed Nasheed has stated that lawmaker MP Ahmed Mahloof’s father Mohamed Hassaan’s arrest was against set principles and procedures.

Following his arrest on Friday, after Friday prayers, President Nasheed tweeted that the arrest was against procedures and called for his release.
