Thanburudhoo is a public surf point close to capital Male' and airport. Guests going there are mainly from liveboards and guesthouses.

Maldives Finest urges the government to thoroughly investigate the case and proceed to court of law for prosecution in order to establish justice, otherwise future cases could lead to revenge and escalate situation.
