MDP to move for Minister Ihusan's removal over fraudulent party form case

Opposition members from Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) have voted to move for Homeland Security and Technology Minister Ali Ihusan's removal from office, alleging that the recent fraudulent submission of forms to inflate ruling party People’s National Congress (PNC) membership involved illegal access to the Department of National Registration's (DNR) database.

One of the MDP lawmakers reportedly has confirmed the party's parliamentary group decision to move for a no confidence vote against Ihusan.
