Accountability Moves: Two investigations are underway—one into the divers’ deaths and another into the recovery diver’s death—while Italy has seized victims’ devices as part of a culpable homicide probe. Local Tech Governance: Maldives plans a Citizens’ Complaints Bureau by July 26, using AI and digital channels plus a 24-hour call center to track government responses.
