President's Office's Spokesperson Miuvaan Mohamed said on Thursday said that the accusations made against President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih regarding his alleged involvement in the terror attack against Speaker Mohamed Nasheed are attempts to regain lost political popularity and that if these baseless allegations continue to be spread with the intention of dividing the nation, the government will take legal action.
Miuvaan said that the individuals making accusations against President Solih are exploiting their legal privileges, which protect them from being prosecuted for statements made in certain spaces. He said that these accusations are made by the people and directed his statements towards parliamentarians who are aware of this legal protection.
