Ahmed Shafneez has been appointed today to the post of Deputy Commissioner General of Taxation at Maldives Inland Revenue Authority (MIRA). 

When the vacancy for the post was announced, several persons applied. Of these, President Dr Mohamed Muizzu selected three individuals, which he forwarded to parliament for review. The three names are:

  1. Ahmed Shafneez, Bageechage, S. Hulhudhoo
  2. Ahmed Mausoom, V. Miares, Vilimale'
  3. Mariyam Jaidha, Kandugasdhoshuge, K. Dhiffushi

On Monday last week, the parliament confirmed approval to appoint Shafneez to the position. 

Shafneez has worked at MIRA for over 15 years. He has previously served as Director General, Administration and Finance, at the institution. 

The post of Deputy Commissioner General became vacant following the promotion of Fathimath Ameeza, who had been filling the post, to the post of Commissioner General of Taxation.
