Former Maldives president Mohamed Nasheed called for the arrest of incumbent President Mohamed Waheed on Sunday and appealed for greater assistance from the international community after the country’s presidential election was disrupted. He insisted there is no possibility of having a free and fair presidential election as long as President Waheed’s government was in power and that control should be handed over to the speaker of parliament to oversee the election of a new head of state, Xinhua reported. ‘Basically I’m calling for his (Waheed’s) resignation and for him to face justice. I’m still hoping that Waheed will gracefully resign today or tomorrow,’ Nasheed told reporters.
