The Supreme Court has invalidated the candidacy of local council candidates Aseeth Thuafee, competing for Himandhoo in Alif Alif Atoll (as MDP), and Abdul Bari, who competed for Bodufolhudhoo in Alif Alif Atoll (as an independent).
Haveeru reported that Aseeth was invalidated because of a conviction for stealing an outboard motor, a crime for which he was sentenced to banishment for 13 months (unserved).
Bari had been convicted in 1994 for “treachery” of Rf 20,000, Haveeru reported.
