Mauro Icardi Copa Mundial Camiseta , Oct. 24 (Xinhua) -- Embattled Maldives election officials have called on President Mohammad Waheed to ensure that security forces do not interrupt attempts to hold presidential elections for a third time after the police stopped a previous vote, local media reported on Thursday.
Maldives Elections Commissioner Fuad Thoufeek in a statement had appealed for assistance from President Waheed after he accused the police of stopping two previous elections scheduled for Sept. 28 and Oct. 19.
"The elections commission has requested assurances from President Mohamed Waheed Hassan that this time, elections should not be disrupted by security services and to facilitate the smooth conduction of the elections," the statement said.
The first round of elections on Sept. 7 did take place but the results were later annulled by the country's Supreme Court after two candidates alleged mass scale vote rigging.
Former President Mohammad Nasheed, who was controversially ousted from power in February 2012, won the first round of the elections with 45.45 percent of the vote.
President Waheed
Emiliano Insua Copa Mundial Camiseta , who managed to garner just 5 percent, later withdrew from the presidential race and pledged to oversee a peaceful transition of power.
However, this failed to materialize as the elections were hampered by deepening political infighting and police interference prompting Nasheed to demand Waheed's resignation.
According to the Maldives Constitution, a new president has to be sworn in by Nov.11 and Waheed has already insisted that he is not interested in remaining in office after the deadline.
If a president is not elected by Nov. 11, then parliament has to take over with the Speaker temporarily overseeing power transition unless the Supreme Court decides otherwise.
Nov. 9 was announced as the new date for elections on Monday, and if there is no clear winner
