“NSS a Cradle of Corruption and Power Abuse” says Junior NSS Officer

A junior NSS officer has blasted the organisation he works for, calling it the “corruption cradle of the Maldives”, and a “perverted institution” where “abuse of power and dominance” is rife.

Speaking under the condition of anonymity, the officer stated that dozens of junior recruits were “furious” with the “abuse of power, biasness, prejudice, pretence and hypocritical nature” of senior officers.

The junior officer pointed to abuses of power, with the “blabbermouth” sons of top generals being promoted up through the ranks ahead of equally capable officers who do not have such connections. The officer stated that: “A General’s son got a triple promotion, whilst several officers with qualifications from leading European academies were left behind.”

The junior officer further blasted the extravagant lifestyle of top generals: “One general has accumulated two automobiles – one of which is a $300,000 Land Rover – even though NSS rules state you are allowed only one. His wife drives the second car.”

“As poor soldiers dine in disgusting mess rooms and shower with salty water, the General rambles around Male’ with his wife and meets up with Yameen at his multi-million dollar mansion” laments the junior officer.

The junior officer further said that the “infuriated rank and file are disgusted with the bias and prejudice in the NSS and are longing for reformists to advise them on how best to kick out these corrupt senior officers.” “We need equity, fairness and justice” said the officer, “we won’t stomach it anymore.”
