ACC summons ex-Elections Commissioner Fuwad Thowfeek

The Anti-Corruption Commission is investigating allegations of corruption against the Elections Commission’s former chief Fuwad Thowfeek and has summoned him for questioning.

Fuwad, who is currently residing in Sri Lanka after having been given a six-month jail sentence along with other members of the commission, has been summoned for 02:00pm on 9th May.

The commission is investigating alleged corruption in how the Elections Commission had chosen members for its ‘National Compliance Bureau’ ahead of the presidential elections back in 2013.

Fuwad and then deputy commissioner Ahmed Fayaz were found in contempt of court for criticizing a restrictive Supreme Court guideline for parliamentary elections held that year. Both of them were sacked.
