The Magistrate’s court of Miladhoo was broken into Saturday night (August 18), according to local media.
The court has been operating out of a house on the island since the official premises were damaged in an arson attack last year.
Thieves appeared to have attempted to break into the safe at the property, which at the time was said to have contained MVR125 (US$8), but were unsuccessful, Sun Online has reported.
The court was also targeted by thieves in April this year, who were said to have stolen MVR7000 (US$454). The island in Noonu Atoll has also seen three robbery-related arsons this year, local media has reported.
A police team is said to have arrived on the island as of today.
