Maldives Police Service is currently reviewing the security that is being provided to former Home Minister, Umar Naseer.

Police confirmed that they are currently working to see whether there still was an issue which required protection for the former Home Minister.

Police had arranged security for Umar after he received death threats back in 2016, near his then office in H. Sakeena Manzil.

They had also revealed that the security provided to Umar had been reviewed several times previously.
