Speaking to RaajjeMV, commission member, Fareesha Abdulla revealed that 10 April marked Yameen’s birthday and that his family is yet to receive justice. This, she said, has drawn public criticism.

Highlighting that the commission’s work is hindered and is at a standstill due to the trial being at a standstill at the court.

Work has also been halted due to the ongoing public holidays, she added.
