Generally in our country, such people are elected to the President, who has no criminal case against him, he has not been arrested in any case, he has not been in jail. But today we are going to tell you about a President of the world who was arrested not once or twice but at least 20 times before becoming President. Nevertheless, he became the President of the country and ruled for a full four years. He is also known as 'The Island President'. The name of this president is Mohammad Nasheed. He has been the President of the island nation Maldives located in the Indian Ocean. He ruled the country from 2008 to 2012. He is known as the first democratically elected President of the country. He was expelled from the country in 2016. He was accused by opposition party President Abdulla Yameen of being involved in terrorism.

Please tell that 52-year-old Mohammad Nasheed is a very educated person. He did his early education from the school in the Maldives, but after that, he went to Colombo, Sri Lanka for further studies. Then from there to England, then to Liverpool, where he completed his graduation. He then returned to the Maldives in 1990 and became the assistant editor of a new magazine, 'Sangu', which criticized the government of the then President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom. After this 'sangu' was banned and Mohammad Nasheed was sentenced to house arrest. Then later that year he was imprisoned and kept in solitary confinement for 18 months. In 1992, Mohammad Nasheed was again sentenced to three years in prison, but in 1993 he was released. Nasheed then sought permission from the government to form an independent political party in the year 1994, but his request was rejected. Then in 1996, he was again sentenced to six months in prison, as he had written about the 1993 and 1994 Maldives elections in a Philippines magazine. After being released from prison, Mohammad Nasheed worked hard to get into politics for two years and finally, in 1999, he became a member of the Parliament of Maldives on behalf of the People's Majlis Party. However, his happiness did not last long and he was arrested again in October 2001 and the following month he was sentenced to two and a half years of exile in a remote island. Then in March 2002, he was expelled from the party too, because he had not gone to a single parliament proceeding for the last six months. However, in the meantime, he was released in August.

In September 2003, when riots broke out in Maldives capital Male after that Mohammad Nasheed left the Maldives and reached Sri Lanka. He returned to the Maldives again in April 2005 after living in Sri Lanka for almost one and a half years. Incidentally, in June the same year, the Maldives government passed a law allowing political parties to participate in elections, after which Nasheed launched a campaign to bring more and more democracy to the Maldives. However, after this, he was again taken into custody. He remained in the house arrest from 2005 to 2006. He benefited from all this in the presidential election held in the Maldives for the first time in 2008 and he managed to defeat the then President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom and came to power in the Maldives. Mohammad Nasheed did a lot of work on climate change in his country as a president, after which he was recognized worldwide. Since the Maldives is situated at a height of just six feet from the sea, he held an underwater meeting to attract worldwide attention, given the potential danger of the country ever sinking. In November 2018, when the President of Maldives Elections were held, in which Mohammad Nasheed's party Maldivian Democratic Party won and Ibrahim Mohammad Solih became president. After this, on November 26, 2018, the Supreme Court of Maldives reversed Nasheed's sentence, saying that he had been wrongly accused, he should not have been tried. Nasheed was relieved after that and returned to his country again.
