A man who bit off an individual's finger during a brawl has been remanded until the end of his trial.

The man in custody is a Bangladeshi native. It is not clear when this incident occurred.

The Criminal Court, in its arrest warrant, said that the man was being remanded until the end of his trial because he could be considered a danger to the public. The warrant also stated that he had assaulted two others with a sharp object.

The police had submitted photographs of the injuries to the court.

Gang violence has escalated in the capital, Malé city, as of recently. Last week, a man was stabbed while he was inside a shop, and he later passed away from the injuries. The police have also said that they have upscaled operations to counter gang violence and ensure public safety.
