I was sipping a coffee in Male' Artificial Beach, when I heard about the ongoing shooting in Jail, where a prisoner taken to IGMH. When I reached IGMH I saw a mob attacking the nearest Police Post. I saw desperate and helpless Abas Ibrahim (Endherimaage) trying to convince the public to stop their outcry. Next I heard Ivan Naseem's death and about many injured inmates. I had witnessed most of the events through out the city until midnight. I saw an angry public, and helpless government to solve sudden crisis, and a mob trying to take advantage of the situation.
Curious, I questioned myself where the country was heading and as time passed I got more involved in politics. Then came the era of dhivehi observer, an internet dissent website publishing whatever public sent to them. We all took that on face value, and did not bother much if any of it was based on facts. The founder of DO is Ahmed Moosa (DO Sappe). My first impression was messy about him due to a past incident, when me and some friends had dinner at Local Haruge Cafe, a restaurant managed by DO Sappe, The pizza we ordered was made on rotten flour, we demanded to meet Sappe and he came and scold us on top of his voice (his customers) and said if we don't have money why should we come to eat. What he failed to understand was we are his customers and we had rights to complain on those circumstances. I still remember the day Sappe left UK on his dhivehi observer mission, I met him day before on a Cigarette break at Fila Building where our office, and his office Horizon Fisheries was located. He told me he was going to UK to oversea Villa UK Travel Office, but underneath the deal was Qasim Ibrahim was sending him to UK to run a dissent website.
Next - Black Friday - coming up
