Post mortems to be conducted on all prison deaths

Minister of Homeland Security and Technology Ali Ihusan has said that in any cases of future deaths in prison, the body will be released to family only after a post mortem is conducted.

Currently, there is widespread speculation on social media that markings seen on the body of Mohamed Jameel, 45, who died while in custody at the Maafushi Prison, are bruises inflicted through torture and mistreatment.
