Anti-government protest held on Saturday
Supporters of the opposition coalition held anti-government protests in capital city Malé on Saturday.
Similar to the previous day, the protesters called on authorities to implement the Supreme Court order on February 1 to release nine political prisoners and reinstate 12 MPs.
Protesters gathered on main road Majeedhee Magu at the four-way intersection connecting to Chaandhanee Magu. But police blocked them from moving on to opposition MDP’s campaign site near Artificial Beach.
No one was arrested at the protest.
