Leader of Jumhooree Party (JP) Gasim Ibrahim has said that the party is ready for discussions with the government.
Gasim said on Twitter today that that he is presently in Bangkok, and JP is ready for discussions with the government.
He also denied the allegation that the protest on May 1 was funded by him.
Credible sources have told Sun Online that the reason for Criminal Court’s order to arrest Gasim, issued last night, was for allegedly funding the protest.
The accounts of Gasim’s companies Villa Shipping, Villa Holidays, and Villa Hotels and Resorts have been frozen.
