The Jumhooree Party (JP) and the Maldives Development Alliance (MDA) have jointly called for a thorough investigation into a threatening social media post that called for the assassination of President Dr. Mohammed Muizzu.

In a statement issued today, the two parties expressed their strong condemnation of the threat against the President’s life, urging all law enforcement agencies to take the matter seriously and conduct a comprehensive inquiry.

The parties also emphasized the importance of ensuring the President's safety and called on security services to implement necessary measures to protect him.

The threat surfaced on social media as the President was set to deliver a speech at a UNGA event, leading to heightened concerns for his safety. The comment on Facebook triggered police to initiate a serious investigation into the incident.

As the investigation unfolded, the JP and MDA reiterated their commitment to uphold the safety and security of all public officials, stressing the need for accountability in addressing such threats.
