The Maldives Police Service (MPS) has launched a probe into a nurse employed at Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital (IGMH) allegedly consuming drugs.
Speaking to RaajjeMV, a media official at the police institution revealed that they received a report of a nurse at the hospital using drugs a fortnight back and that they have launched an investigation in connection with the case.
The case was lodged at MPS by the hospital.
However, the police institution revealed that no arrests have been made so far.
According to sources the matter made the spotlight, and the hospital lodged a complaint after the nurse accused of using drugs, reported to duty high on drugs.
Further investigations are currently underway.
Drug possession and abuse are major issues for which the country is yet to find a solution.
Such cases are reported from across the country frequently and authorities continue to seize large quantities of drugs in major operations.
