Maldives President Mohammed Waheed Hassan addresses the public after the commission of national inquiry released its report in Male, Maldives, Thursday, Aug. 30, 2012. A domestic inquiry commission in the Maldives Thursday concluded that former president Mohamed Nasheed's resignation earlier this year was legal, and that he was not forced to step down at gunpoint as he claims. Nasheed has rejected the report and his supporters have resumed street protests in the Indian Ocean nation. Nasheed resigned in February after public protests and losing support from military and police. The commission was set up to investigate allegations that mutinying police and soldiers forced him to resign.
