Local militants linked to Syria war killed Maldives journalist Ahmed Rilwan, probe finds

Family members of disappeared Maldivian journalist Ahmed Rilwan Abdulla hold posters as they participate in an event to mark the"International Day of the Disappeared" in Colombo, August 28, 2019.

Journalists and rights groups in the tropical archipelago say Rilwan's criticism of the government and extremism could have made him a target. Rilwan was murdered at sea after his abduction, Suood said, but he declined to elaborate, saying details could hamper the investigation.
