A video related to the alleged incident has also been circulating on social media.
Police are investigating the alleged sexual assault of a boy under the age of 18 on an island in the north of the Maldives.
In a message sent to the media on Monday night, police said they were investigating “a case involving the alleged sexual assault of a male under the age of 18 on an island within the jurisdiction of North Police”.
Maldivian law restricts the disclosure of information that could identify a child involved in such a case. The name of the island has therefore been withheld to protect the identity of the minor.
