President of the Maldivian Democracy Network (MDN) has said that the Islamic Ministry is what is destroying the nation.

At a time where the MDN is being heavily condemned for a 2016 assessment report that criticized the Islamic faith, Shahindha has taken to twitter asking which religion allowed the murders and kidnapping that has taken place in the country so far.

She said that the Islamic Ministry has neglected to take action against the culprits in those cases. Shahindha also tagged the Minister of Youth, Sports and Community Empowerment, Ahmed Mahloof, in her tweets as well since he too has criticized the MDN.

While many has condemned the report, members of the MDN are facing threats from some members of the public for the insults against the religion, MDN has retracted the report and made a public apology.

Shahindha said that they have been facing the problem since the report was published and the threats against them have been reported to the Maldives Police Service and would not stop until it is properly investigated.

Further tweets by the President of the MDN have accused some media outlets of spreading false information to create fear in the public. Noting that it was a report from 2016, she raised the question whether the report is suddenly in the public eye due to the newly passed Anti-Terrorism law.

A public campaign is currently ongoing against the MDN which include religious leaders, politicians and a large number of the public.
