Ibrahim ‘Gabbarey’ Abdulla of Machangoalhi Night Villa, who has been identified by police as a “hardcore criminal”, has returned to the Maldives after medical treatment in India.
Abdulla, who has been arrested 14 times for robbery and gang violence, was charged with the murder of 21-year-old Ali Ishar in December 2007. Police had confiscated an axe, an empty liquor bottle, and a bloodied bandage and towel from Machangoalhi Night Villa as evidence, Haveeru reports.
Although Abdulla confessed to the crime, the Juvenile Court acquitted him on the grounds that it had not found evidence against him. He was a minor at the time.
Abdulla was returned on the condition that he be put back into custody upon arrival in the Maldives.
Abdulla was sent to India in April under a court permit and doctor’s recommendations for treatment of stab wounds to the head.
The duration of his stay in India was not specified, police have told Haveeru. In late August, however, Indian police arrested Abdulla for overstaying in Trivandrum.
One of many Maldivians overstaying in Trivandrum and Kochi and Hyderabad and Bangalore..........why was he given an Indian visa in the first place?
Well done Indian police...........keep criminal scum bags out of India.
