Maldives Police Service has stated that they are doing everything they can to establish proofs against criminals.

Chief Inspector of Police Abdulla Shatheeh made this remark in a press conference held yesterday at Iskandharu Building.

“The public are hesitant to give information because they have to take a risk and no results of their testimonies are seen most of the time,” he said.

Shatheeh said that Maldives Police Service has always fulfilled their duty and they have been arresting criminals and sending their cases for prosecution to the Prosecutor General with the evidences they find.

He said that Maldives Police Service has no authority in making rulings on cases and the Police do not have any authority to influence the decision of the courts.

However, Shatheeh assured that Maldives Police Service will provide the security required for the witnesses who testify against perpetrators of crime.
