The Trial
The farce of a trial over and I come home. Half way through reporters and everyone barred and sent off. Evidence vedeo behind the judge and people laughed .Judge got angry for laughing at an arrangement thats stupid in a court of law and sents all observers out. Anni escorted around armed guards and taken home witout a trial as charges against Anni who was taken for his personel safety for having a peaceful vigil at Jumhoory Maidhaan is now being charged with sedition, terrorism and what not and it keeps building up with every trial that Anni's lawyers has to constantly request for new unfound charges that its nothing but a big farce. And all the while trying to make a public believe in any ridiculous explanation of the trial and keeping Anni under arrest is an injustice that no right sensing person will accept. Whatever trial they have or whatever sentence he might be given will not make the people believe , for that day, Anni was exercising not only a human but a constitutional right and he shall be released.
Inspite of the threats, thousands of people gathered at the artifical beach area for the totally peaceful demonstration on he 24th to exercise a consitutional right under Article 25 and 26 while , calling themselves a false name of government security forces constantly threatening and blaring over a loudspeaker inciting fear was a nuisance to everyone gathered there for who ever who went there went there because they believe that police commisioner adam zahir should be thrown out of office for irresponsibility for what happened at Fares-Mathoda and all the violence in the country with knives and iron bars having a field day. Thieves of gangs cracking island office safes and taking away puplic property; who come with with knives and attack or threaten and rob you of your daily earnings.
While at Laamu ,on the 22nd, the first news i heard was that the island office of Mukurimagu was busted last night and people told me that these attacks has been an ongoing series and already all the other safes of Thundi Mathimaradhoo Fonadhu and lots of public property had been robbed and the police cannot stop them.
The next slogan of the peaceful demonstration was to protect the civil rights of a government employee, by calling not to threaten or harass or be put out of job or office because of his membership in a certain political party.
And the other one was to release Maldivian Democratic Party chair person Anni and all politacal prisoners.
The gonernment of president maumoon abdul gayyoom has failed in the needs of the people when they try to deprive the people of a constitutional right and taking the theme of party rules outriding the constitution and a wild campaign for two days to incite fear among the people against peaceful demonstration constantly over national tv, and radio while giving no chance to any opposition party member to say any thing ( on national tv, and radio the one and only and totally controlled and monopolised by the government) ....... But, riding over fear and threats thousands of people joined the peaceful demonstration to protect their rights.
