President Mohamed Muizzu has been accused of having an extramarital affair with an employee of the President's Office.
In an exclusive interview with Adhadhu, the young woman who worked at the President's Office in 2025 said she had sexual relations with Muizzu.
A video documentary of the interview was posted on Adhadhu's social media platforms on Saturday night (March 28).
"Muizzu and I had sex. Three times. There were other times we were [sexually] involved as well," said the woman, whose identity was kept secret for protection.
"There are two sofas in the President's cabin. Like an L [shape]. The President and I were physical on the long sofa. Then the President's main table, a round table. The President and I were physical on that table too."
Adhadhu has seen chat logs between Muizzu and the woman in her early 20s. The President had texted her outside of official working hours and used the timer feature for disappearing messages.
Government Spokesperson Heena Waleed denied the allegations.
"These allegations are baseless and blatant lies," she said in a message.
Muizzu did not respond to questions about the allegations.
The woman was an employee of the President's Office earlier last year. She worked in the office for about a week.
On January 13, 2025, Muizzu transferred her to the post of Senior Political Director of the Gender Ministry. She was later transferred to the post of Senior Political Director of the Higher Education Ministry.
The woman is not currently in any government position or employment.
