Maldives’ Ousted President Mohamed Nasheed Arrested On Terror Charges

Mohamed Nasheed, former president of Maldives and current opposition leader, was arrested Sunday under an anti-terrorism law, according to media reports. The arrest was reportedly made on charges related to Nasheed's order to arrest a senior judge in January 2012. The case against Nasheed was dropped last week, but an arrest warrant against him was issued on Sunday under new charges of terrorism, according to media reports. Authorities also ordered him to stand trial in connection with the case.
