Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP)’s candidate Mohamed Raashid wins by-election for Parliament’s Komandoo constituency.
While there were a total of seven ballot boxes placed for today’s voting, the current results show Raashid cruised to win the seat for Komandoo constituency while Progressive Party of Maldives (PPM)’s Moosa Fathuhee trails behind.
The Komandoo seat was left vacant following the death of MP Hussain Waheed on December 14. He passed away at the age of 53 years after a year-long battle with cancer.
