Maldives must dispel its criminal image: Nasheed

The Maldives is at a point where it must prove that it is not a "criminal" to the rest of the world, former President Mohamed Nasheed declared on Wednesday.

Speaking to the residents of Hithadhoo during his ongoing visit to Addu City, Nasheed criticised the administration of outgoing President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom, saying that the country has become a "hub" for money laundering and black money.
