High Court has stated that it has not received any election-related case.
The court said this after reports emerged that President Abdulla Yameen’s legal affairs minister Azima Shukoor had submitted such a case.
According to the regulations, election-related cases are to be submitted to the High Court and Supreme Court.
The reports indicate that ruling Progressive Party of Maldives (PPM), which is controlled by the incumbent president, is attempting to nullify the presidential election’s result after the his decisive loss against opponent Ibrahim Mohamed Solih.
The party is allegedly attempting to send numerous complaints regarding the election to the Elections Commission (EC).
Some opposition lawmakers have accused President Yameen of trying to forcefully remain in power.
EC chief Ahmed Shareef told RaajjeMV that they will announce the official results of the election on Sunday, as per announced previously.
