Adam Ibrahim, former head of finances at Kulhuduffushi Island’s regional hospital, has been given a jail sentence for abusing an 11-year-old boy.

50-year-old Ibrahim was sentenced to 10 years in prison by the Kulhuduffushi Magistrate Court, which tried him for sexual offense against a minor, under the Sexual Offences Act.

The prosecution’s evidence had been enough to assure the sentence.

Ibrahim was arrested for the abuse in April of 2016.
