A verdict is forthcoming in a case submitted by Dhivehi Qaumee Party (DQP) Vice President Imad Solih to the Civil Court, in an effort to prevent GMR from collecting a US$25 airport development charge from departing passengers.
The DQP has argued that the charges were a tax and unconstitutional, reported Haveeru.
The Attorney General’s (AG) Office argued on behalf of the Finance Ministry that that the charge would be taken under the Airport Service Charge Act and was not a tax.
