COLOMBO // Maldives police say they have arrested Mohamed Nasheed, the former president, who failed to appear for a hearing to face charges that he illegally ordered the arrest of a judge.
Police spokesman Hasan Haneef said Mr Nasheed was arrested on Fares-Mathoda island, about 440 kilometres away from the capital Male today.
"He is in police custody in order to be produced before courts on Tuesday," Mr Haneef added.
Yesterday, Hulhumale magistrate court issued an arrest warrant on Mr Nasheed after he twice defied summons to appear before courts. The same courts, two weeks ago, ordered him not to leave the capital, Male, without the court's permission. Nasheed defied that order too.
Mr Nasheed was country's first elected president, but he resigned as president in February due to protest over judge's arrest.

What is the definition of an SME?
SMEs in the UAE are defined by the number of employees, annual turnover and sector. For example, a “small company” in the services industry has six to 50 employees with a turnover of more than Dh2 million up to Dh20m, while in the manufacturing industry the requirements are 10 to 100 employees with a turnover of more than Dh3m up to Dh50m, according to Dubai SME, an agency of the Department of Economic Development.
A “medium-sized company” can either have staff of 51 to 200 employees or 101 to 250 employees, and a turnover less than or equal to Dh200m or Dh250m, again depending on whether the business is in the trading, manufacturing or services sectors.
