The party camp of Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) at Addu City Meedhoo has been set ablaze.
MDP's Meedhoo constituency deputy president Mohamed Didi suspected the fire to be a deliberate act of arson.
Didi explained he believed this was an attack by a group of arsonists as the camp's main door lock has been damaged.
He further noted the party camp was situated farther away from residential areas of Meedhoo; near the beach. The apparent arson attack had damaged several equipment inside the camp premises including sound systems.
Didi noted the building was beyond usable while the damages amount to approximately MVR400,000 to MVR500,000. The incident has been reported to Maldives Police Service and the authority confirms they were investigating the matter.
