Maldives Arrests Climate Change Minister for Performing ‘Black Magic’ on President

The state minister at the Ministry of Climate Change, Environment and Energy for the Maldives, Fathimath Shamnaz Ali Saleem, was detained and suspended from her position on accusations of committing acts of “sorcery” on President Mohamed Muizzu, Maldivian outlets reported on Thursday.

The Maldives also dramatically escalated what began as a benign tourism rivalry with India following Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s suggestion that Indian nationals choose domestic beaches for their vacations over the Maldives. Various ministers in the Maldivian government responded with personal insults towards Modi, including deriding him as a “puppet of Israel.”

“However, the Maldives Police Service said on Wednesday that Shamnaz and two others, excluding Rameez, have been placed under arrest on charges of sorcery,” it added. “It is yet unclear whether Rameez is suspected of being an accomplice.” There is no indication that the suspension of the government ministers will affect the Maldives’ foreign policy outside of negotiations with leftist states on the “climate crisis.” Muizzu has pursued an aggressive foreign policy threatening the global leverage of the country, however, particularly taking a firm pro-Hamas stance following Hamas’s brutal siege of Israel on October 7.
