The President of the Maldives went on television to appeal for calm
yesterday after an unprecedented two days of clashes between police
and local people triggered by the deaths of three prisoners.
President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom announced the opening of an
investigation of the events that plunged the tiny Indian Ocean island
nation, an increasingly popular destination for western tourists, into
chaos over the weekend.
