President's Office Minister Adam Rameez's younger sister has been dismissed from the Maldives Fund Management Corporation (MFMC) board.
Aminath Sheeza Ahmed was appointed to the MFMC board in January this year.
An official from the Privatization and Corporatization Board (PCB), which is responsible for appointing and dismissing directors of state-owned companies and overseeing companies, confirmed her dismissal.
She was dismissed on the orders of the President's Office earlier this week.
Her brother Adam Rameez, who was President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu's "right-hand man", has been on suspension for the past two weeks.
Rameez was suspended after the media reported the arrest of his ex-wife former State Minister at the Environment Ministry Shamnaz Saleem on June 23.
Adhadhu understands that the relationship between Rameez and Muizzu had soured before her arrest and Rameez had been "isolated" from the President.
Dismissals of those connected to Rameez
Some people associated with Rameez have been transferred from their jobs since rumours of his isolation spread. A government official told Adhadhu that they included two people who were working in the police intelligence.
Several of his family members and close associates hold various government positions. The official said that it is expected that they will be removed from their posts.
