The Criminal Court is to decide on how to proceed with criminal cases in the absence of a Prosecutor General (PG), local media have reported
The superior court will decide on whether to continue all the cases in the court or halt the cases until a new PG is appointed.
The position has been vacant since former PG Ahmed Muiz resigned on November 25.
Local newspaper Haveeru noted that Civil Court has previously stopped proceeding with cases when the position of Attorney General (AG) was vacant.
