Furthermore, JSC has appointed Chief Magistrate of the Hirilandhoo Magistrate Court Abdulla Hussain as the new Chief Magistrate of the Kinbidhoo Magistrate Court. The appointment was made under the guidelines established to transfer judges to another court and appoint them to a position corresponding to their rank upon their request.
