DhiTV board members have been summoned by the Parliament General Committee to “clarify some information”.
Last week Editor and News Head of DhiTV Midhath Adam was heavily criticised at the Parliament’s Privileges Committee following accusations of defamation.
Midhath today (November 29) said that the directors’ board has since been asked to be present at parliament at 9:30am on Monday. According to Midhath, the board had not decided on a course of action over the matter.
Parliament has asked DhiTV to provide the names of two board members who will be present before next Sunday.
Midhath was previously summoned to the parliament on two separate occasions to clarify information regarding DhiTV content.
Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) Chairperson and Hulhu-Henveiru MP Reeko Moosa Manik, accused DhiTV of defaming his business and family, whilst Jabir further accused DhiTV of broadcasting stories that were shaped to attack him personally.
