Shafraz Naeem (Shaff) spends 50 hours submerged underwater, successfully completing the record-breaking dive event Ocean 6|50, organized to mark the golden jubilee of the Maldives’ tourism and diving industry. 

Minister of Tourism Abdulla Mausoom attended the event site - Kuda Giri near Anantara Dhigu Resort - to greet Shaff on his successful dive record. After required medical inspections, Shaff moved to greet those who were onboard to congratulate him, which included partners, supporters and guest divers as well as his family members.
