Jailed opposition lawmaker Ahmed Mahloof has again left for medical treatment to neighbouring India on Tuesday.
Mahloof had been granted leave in December last year to seek medical care for a skin allergy.
Correctional service said the lawmaker had been given seven days to receive some injections from India.
Mahloof is serving 10 months and 24 days over two separate counts of impeding police officers.
The independent MP for South Galolhu who is also the spokesperson for the newly formed opposition alliance, Maldives United Opposition (MOU) was first sentenced to four months and 24 days in prison after the criminal court found him guilty of of obstructing police officers during an opposition protest in April.
A week later he received a further six months for pushing police barricades and entering a restricted area during a protest in March last year.
