Neykurendhoo Council President Ali Siraj said Shifaz fell a week ago while climbing a coconut palm during a trip to Kulhudhuffushi for work.
“He climbed to clear the tree. He fell unconscious and died,” Siraj said.
Shifaz was first treated at Kulhudhuffushi Regional Hospital. He was transferred to Malé three days ago after his condition did not change.
