Maroshi 'SMALL' chief charged with paedophilia


According to local reports, the 'SMALL' Katheeb (Deputy Chief) of Maroshi island in Shaviyani Atoll, in the North of Maldives, has been charged with pardophilia. The 36 year old man, Igbal Mohamed Hussain of Bageechaage, Maroshi, is accused of having sex with a group of under 10 year olds. It is alleged that this bachelor has been known to the authorities for his alleged sexual behaviour but over the years, he built a powerful connection with a brother of the Maldives Dictator, making him immune from prosecution in the past. "We have complained many times but he remains above the law", said a resident of Maroshi, who wants to remain anonymous. This is a common phenomenon in the islands of the Maldives, mainly because the Dictator of the Maldives, Gayyoom, himself is renowned to be a paedophile, hence appeases his counterparts. "He will not be convicted, mark my word on this", said the source from the island. The case continues.
