Minister of Tourism Ali Waheed has revealed the past administration leased a lagoon for resort development to a party which had not registered as a company. The minister made the remarks at a press conference held at Ministry of Tourism.
Minister Ali Waheed said the ministry is currently seeking advisory from the Attorney General's Office to determine which actions need to be taken.
Meanwhile, at a previous press conference, the tourism minister revealed a case in which one island was leased to three companies by the former administration of President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom.
The current administration widely criticised the past administration for not following rules and regulations in leasing islands and lagoons.
