Just days ahead of the Maldives's parliamentary elections, President Mohamed Muizzu is embroiled in a political controversy. Opposition parties have demanded an investigation and his potential impeachment due to corruption allegations dating back to 2018. The president has categorically denied these claims. Notably, Muizzu's People's National Congress (PNC) is competing against the main opposition party, the Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP), in the polls scheduled to be held on April 21.
