Naushad Moosa, who has been arrested several times previously for indecent behaviour in Furqan Mosque, has been taken into custody once again. 

This time, police arrested Naushad for indecent exposure inside a mosque, in front of a woman who had been praying. 

Naushad, 32, of G. Male' Hiyaa 2 13-02, was arrested after police received reports that he had exposed himself to a woman who had been praying in the women's section of Furqan Mosque. 

On September 12, Naushad was arrested for defecating inside the same mosque. Over that incident, he was held in remand in custody for 15 days initially, after which the court ordered that he be held in custody until the end of trial. 

He was later convicted in the case, and sentenced to 1 month and 15 days in prison on November 1. However, as he had served 1 month and 21 days in custody during his remand, the court considered this as time served and ruled he did not have to serve any additional period in prison. 

After his release, photos of him sleeping inside the Furqan Mosque were shared on social media. 

Police said that they are now investigating a case against Naushad after a woman came to the police station and reported that he had exposed himself to her and committed an indecent act while she had been engaged in prayers at Furqan Mosque. 

Police said that they are working with relevant authorities to take appropriate actions to ensure such acts are not repeated. 

Naushad has also faced arrests previously for damaging Quran texts and vandalizing property at Furqan Mosque. He was also arrested earlier for a similar offence of indecent exposure at the same mosque.
