Disagreements over journalistic coverage shouldn't enable serious death threats— especially in a country where impunity prevails in cases of political violence. This must not be normalized.

No journo deserves to be harassed or threatened. I personally know how badly it affects mental well-being. Labeling journalists or any Muslim as infidels, Zionists, or Jews is a dangerous escalation that we cannot take lightly. It directly endangers their lives and families. mja.mv/news-room/mja-files-u…

🔔MJA strongly condemns the exclusion of several popular media outlets from President Muizzu's press conference today. This is a direct obstruction of press freedom and the public's right to information. We urge the President's Office to ensure equal access for all media outlets.

Joint Statement by MJA & @TransparencyMV: We strongly condemn the Public Accounts Committee’s amendment to the Foreign Exchange Bill, which bans media from reporting parallel market FX rates. We urge Parliament to reject the bill.

Reporting the realities of the parallel FX market isn't "market manipulation"; it's holding policymakers accountable and stating the economic facts. Banning media from reporting black market dollar rates is outright censorship. Parliament must reject this unconsulted amendment to the Foreign Exchange Bill.
