Maldives Police Service has launched an investigation after social media influencer and fitness instructor Fathimath Navaa lodged a complaint alleging three months of continuous stalking and harassment.
The case came to public attention after Navaa shared a video on her social media platforms documenting an encounter along the pedestrian walkway of the Sinamalé Bridge. In the footage, a visibly frustrated Navaa confronts a man, questioning why he had been following and monitoring her movements. She detailed specific instances and locations where he had allegedly tracked her over the past three months. The video also shows her visiting a police station later that morning to officially file a report.
Police confirmed that a report alleging repeated harassment by an individual over the span of three months was lodged at approximately 06:00 AM on October 7, 2026.
Authorities stated that an active investigation into the matter is currently underway.
