Adhaalath Party says no support for government unless religious preaching permitted

Adhaalath Party has, once again, said that they will not support the government unless the government permits religious preaching. Speaking at Adhaalath Party’s general meeting held Friday night at Kalaafaanu School Chief Spokesman of the party Sheikh Mohamed Shaheem said that it was extremely important for the government to withdraw their statement made on banning religious speech by people other than those permitted by the Supreme Council during by-elections. “If the statement is withdrawn tomorrow even, we will provide our support. However if permission is granted by the end of this month, we have to hold discussions with the government regarding this issue,” Shaheem said.
