The recent threat issued against international artist Mr. Sean Paul was investigated with the utmost seriousness by concerned local law enforcement authorities, in partnership with their international partners. The investigation has revealed that the threat is a local hoax, and therefore no cause for alarm. The investigation has revealed that the threat is designed to dissuade visitors, create an atmosphere of fear and disappoint the many thousand fans of Mr. Sean Paul who eagerly await the landmark concert in the capital, Male’. The threat is also aimed at tarnishing the longstanding reputation of the Maldives as a destination of peace, security, and tranquility.
However, local authorities will take every possible measure to ensure the safety of Mr. Sean Paul and all his adoring fans in the Maldives, to ensure that the concert is a resounding success.
Maldivians are valued by friends from across the world as a welcoming and tolerant people, who value peace and progress. The landmark concert of Mr. Sean Paul and associated announcement of yet another record-breaking year of Maldivian tourism success are eagerly anticipated by all.
