Ugly Fighting Scenes Unfold In Maldives Parliament
The Maldivian Parliament was poised to vote on a 22-member cabinet at 1 pm on Sunday, the SunOnline outlet reported.
But before the vote, the Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP), in a parliamentary group meeting, passed a three-line red whip to withhold approval for four key cabinet members, the report said. Opposition MPs were also prevented from entering the floor of the Parliament ahead of Cabinet’s approval, according to videos making rounds on the internet.
