Foreign Minister, Dr Ahmed Shaheed, has filed a case at the police regarding leaked documents concerning the Guantánamo Bay detainees issue, reports Miadhu.
Dhivehi Rayyithunge Party (DRP) MP Ahmed Nihan told Minivan News last week “some papers between the President’s Office and some ministries were leaked.” State Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ahmed Naseem, confirmed documents between his ministry and the President’s Office had been leaked.
The documents include a copy of a letter from the Foreign Ministry to the Attorney General, seeking advice on the legalities of the transfer. A note from the US Embassy outlining the legal framework of the transfer was also included.
Dr Shaheed said the documents were forged to some extend, according to Miadhu, making the public worry about the issue.
The Human Rights Commission of the Maldives (HRCM) has also asked the government to release accurate information on the issue.

"The Human Rights Commission of the Maldives (HRCM) has also asked the government to release accurate information on the issue" - now that is the best argument anyone has said regarding this issue. stop complaining and stop trying to place blame. just release the accurate info regarding this in a statement.
The country seriously respect Dr Shaheed wen he was with Dr Hassan, Qaumee Party. NOW look at him, how people see him. I think still he has time to decide his future. Why he keeps defending Nasheed nd MDP? Firstly, he ignored the issue and told that Ali Waheed was taking political favors. Maldivians are very closely looking at what MDP is doing here!I cant stop laughing Dr Shaheed when the time arise!!
