Latheef stated that this attempt to remove Speaker Mohamed Nasheed was started when they did not receive enough numbers to remove the Speaker of Parliament within the Parliament. 

According to lawyer Talib, the case was filed in the supreme court due to Nasheed's representation of Sri Lanka at the COP-27 summit.

According to the article, no member should use his position to advance the caste interests of another individual with whom he or she has a close relationship.
