President Muizzu vows no political arrests by his government

President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has stated that no political figure will be arrested for political motives by this government and that the government will uphold legal equality. The President made these remarks during a press conference held today at the Office of the President, in response to a question raised by a journalist concerning allegations against a former minister and discussions suggesting that laws are not applied to powerful entities. Responding to the question, the President stated that this government will not arrest any political entity for political motives and that such actions have not been taken so far. He also described such acts as acts of revenge and stated that he has brought them to an end. The President said that this is a very important issue and that in such cases, regardless of who is accused, the force of law will prevail. Accordingly, he stated that due process will be followed with any party considered to have committed an act during the enforcement of the law and that the state will provide opportunities for this. He assured that this government will not place any obstacles or exert any influence on such matters. "The implementation of the rule of law, upholding the Constitution, protecting human rights, and indeed all things must be certain here," the President stated. He stated that it is not political in any situation and that taking measures against anyone for political motives has not been done until today, nor will it be done in the future.
