Maldivians say #FindMoyameehaa in search for missing journalist

Concern rises about fate of Maldivian journalist missing for almost a month.

A reporter for the independent news site Minivan News in Maldives has been missing since August 7. Ahmed Rilwan Abdulla, one of Maldives’ first bloggers, was critical of local politicians and radical religious groups in his articles. He recently published a report on death threats sent to local journalists via text messages.
