A long-standing water leak in the Male' Hiyaa 1 flats is being repaired, according to Male' City Council.
The council said the issue had remained unresolved for an extended period and had caused suffering and property damage to families living in the building. Work to fix the leak is now under way.
Male' City Council has highlighted several infrastructure problems in public housing complexes. Residents have previously complained about delays in addressing water, sewage and structural issues in high-rise flats in the capital.
The council continues to coordinate with relevant utilities and contractors on maintenance and repairs in municipal housing.
