The new Maldives constitution does not grant basic rights and freedoms to non-Muslims in the country, according to the Institute on Religion and Public Policy.
The group condemns the constitution because it violates internationally accepted human rights and standards. For example, the document explicitly states that non-Muslims cannot be granted citizenship.
The Institute on Religion and Public Policy is currently working on a comprehensive analysis of the constitution that will be released in September.
