Minister of Homeland Security and Technology Ali Ihusan has requested former President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih to share information about the attack against the Prosecutor General earlier today after the ex-president used the words 'politically motivated' to describe the incident.
The PG was attacked while he was out on his morning exercise routine. Police said that they had received a report of the incident and that the PG is seeking treatment at ADK Hospital.
After condemning the attack former President Solih said on "X" that politically motivated acts of violence have no place in a democratic society and called on the government to be swift in bringing the perpetrators to justice.
This prompted the Homeland Minister to quote the former President's post on X and said that the Police are currently investigating the case. Minister Ihusan said that Solih declaring that the attack was “politically motivated” suggests that the former President has credible information about motive and people behind this attack.
He requested the former president to share the credible information referred here with the Police immediately.
The Minister further said that he has asked investigators to coordinate with the former President's Office in this regard.
Minister Ihusan assured that the Police are treating this case as a top priority and will bring perpetrators to justice.
