Times Now reports: Former Maldivian President Mohamed Nasheed leaves Indian embassy in Male after 11 days. Sources say that Nasheed's trial is likely to be deffered.

Forty-five-year-old Nasheed took refuge in the Indian high commission in Male to evade arrest warrant issued by a local court in a case concerning the detention of chief judge of the criminal court during his presidency in January last year.

Nasheed left the premises of the High Commission at 16.15 hrs (IST), says the Ministry of External Affairs in New Delhi.

An Indian delegation was in Male to hold talks with the Maldivian government and resolve the crisis.
