The Maldives government declared a 15-day state of emergency Monday as the political crisis deepened in the Indian Ocean nation amid an increasingly bitter standoff between the president and the Supreme Court. Hours after the emergency was declared, soldiers forced their way into the Supreme Court building, where the judges were believed to be taking shelter, said Ahmed Maloof, an opposition member of Parliament.

Malé, Maldivas. El pequeño archipiélago turístico de las Maldivas, en el océano Índico, se hundía este martes en un caos político tras la detención del presidente de la Corte Suprema y con la oposición pidiendo una intervención internacional para derrocar al presidente Abdulá Yameen, que denuncia una “conspiración”.

El presidente de la Corte Suprema, Abdulá Saeed, y otro juez fueron detenidos a primera hora del martes bajo cargos de “corrupción” por policías fuertemente armados.
