MDP MP summoned to police for questioning over Supreme Court Judge sex tape blackmail scandal

Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) MP Alhan Fahmy has been summoned by police in connection with the alleged blackmailing of Supreme Court Justice Ali Hameed using footage of the judge having sex with two foreign women said to be prostitutes.

Police confirmed to Minivan News that the Feydhoo MP had been asked to produce himself at police headquarters tonight at 8:30pm for questioning. They declined to provide further information on the matter.

Speaking to Minivan News today, Alhan Fahmy’s sister and lawyer Nooruban Fahmy said Fahmy had no insight at to why police had summoned him.

‘’We do not know any information yet,’’ she said. “We will know more tonight.’’

Fahmy has meanwhile told local media that the police summon chit states he is to be questioned over a matter involving corruption, blackmail and intimidation.

The MP tweeted a screenshot of a text message he claimed had been sent to his mobile phone by Superintendent of Police Mohamed Riyaz. The text read: ‘’Alhan, will make sure you are fully famed (sic) for blackmailing Justice Ali Hameed. You don’t know who we are.’’

On July 4, police formally notified the Judicial Service Commission (JSC), the Prosecutor General and President Mohamed Waheed Hassan regarding their investigation into the case.

The existence of a video footage allegedly involving Justice Hameed indulging in adultery came into media limelight following the arrest of Ahmed Faiz – a senior Council Member of President Waheed’s Gaumee Ihthihaad Party (GIP) and former Project Advisor at the Housing Ministry.

Following the arrest, Faiz was dismissed from his government position and the Spokesperson of President’s Office Masood Imad – who is also a GIP council member – denounced any links with the government regarding the video.

Still images from the sex tape, allegedly showing the judge committing adultery with an unidentified foreign woman, are meanwhile circulating on social media networks.

While fornication outside marriage is a crime under Maldivian law and subject to 100 lashes – a punishment disproportionately meted out to women – the Judicial Services Commission (JSC) has so far rejected the recommendation of its investigating sub committee to suspend Justice Hameed, citing “lack of evidence”.

  1. Here's a quiz:

    Question: What's the difference between the Supreme Court and a massage parlour?

    Answer: You go to a massage parlour for the purpose of committing adultery. The Supreme Court is a haven for adulterers!

    The Not-So-Supreme Court today prevented Majlis form appointing a replacement for the disgraced Mohammed Fahmy Hassan, who admittedly, sexually harassed a subordinate. This squares the circle, pretty well, since

    (1) Mohammed Fahmy Hassan sits on the JSC.
    (2) JSC ruled that porn star Ali Hameed was in fact not a porn star.
    (3) Supreme Court rules in favour of Mohammed Fahmy Hassan.

    Is there anything odd here? Nah, you must be imagining things.

  2. Let the swine attack the wrong man, and breed resentment and hatred in his heart, and turn him from a weak civilian, into a vengeful guerrilla warrior.

  4. This corrupt MP himself asked for this even before anyone suspect him of his involvement .

    This is the guy who had been elected as MP of DRP, then changed to MDP and then to JP and back to MDP now.

    What kind of credibility will have such people
