The High Court on Thursday upheld the Criminal Court’s decision not to produce incumbent President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih and Vice President Faisal Naseem as defence witnesses in the charges against Progressive Party of Maldives' (PPM) former parliamentary group leader Ahmed Nihan.
Nihan is facing four counts of bribery and money laundering for accepting money and a Rolex watch as bribes from former Vice President Ahmed Abdheeb when he was a member of parliament.
