The Maldives National Defence Force said in a statement that it would work to stop activities that "openly threaten the security and safety of the Maldives" or which sought to spread "false and unfounded rumours" about the government.


The combined opposition said in a statement that it feared a military takeover of the Indian Ocean archipelago to preserve Yameen's grip on power. It said the attorney general's "highly irregular statement ... supported by the two chiefs of the security forces" was "tantamount to the effective sidelining of the judiciary and in direct contravention of the constitution".
"Maldivians are fearful that President Yameen is about to order a full military takeover of the country, in an attempt to ensure he is not removed from office," the statement added.
