Sharia has been a politically divisive issue in Mauritius since the 1960s.
Shakeel Ahmed Yousuf Abdul Razack Mohamed (born on 25 August 1968) is a Mauritian Barrister and politician.
Mohamed is the son of Yousuf Mohamed, former MP and Minister who is himself the son of Indian born-Mauritian Minister Abdool Razack Mohamed with his second wife, Ghislaine Ducasse.
Shakeel Mohamed is an alumnus of the Collège du Saint-Esprit where he was also head of the Debate Club.
Mohamed is an alumnus of the University of Buckingham, where he studied law.
Just before his defeat at the 1982 general elections Seewoosagur Ramgoolam's government enacted and promulgated the MPL, but in 1987 Anerood Jugnauth's government repealed the Muslim Personal Law as it discriminated against Muslim women.
He was called to the Bar of England and Wales in 1990 by the Middle Temple Inns of Court.
Mohamed started his political career as a member of the Militant Socialist Movement (MSM) and was a candidate of the MSM-RMM alliance at the December 1995 National Assembly elections in Constituency No.2 (Port Louis South and Port Louis Central) but he was not elected with 14.8% of votes.
He was a member of the MSM of Anerood Jugnauth but later disagreed with him on policy issues.
In 1995 Labour Party and the MMM promised to reintroduce Sharia.
Since 1996 these political assassinations became known as Affaire Gorah Issac.
At these 1996 elections Shakeel Mohamed was the candidate for the MSM in the ward of Vallée-Pitot.
At the start of the scandal and on 27 October 1996 Paul Bérenger, whose party MMM was in alliance with Navin Ramgoolam's Labour Party, openly accused Shakeel Mohamed for his involvement in the triple murders.
At the September 2000 National Assembly elections Shakeel Mohamed was candidate in Constituency No.3 (Port Louis Maritime and Port Louis East) of the party called Comité d'Action Mauricien, which was different from the original Comité d'Action Musulman (CAM).
However he was again not elected and received 11.2% of votes.
He then resigned from MSM and joined the Labour Party in 2000.
In 2000 the "star witness" Khadafi Oozeer alleged that one week prior to the shootings Shakeel Mohamed had a confrontation with Babal Joomun regarding their rival parties' propaganda posters.
Oozeer also alleged that, as a result of the confrontation, Shakeel Mohamed had given instructions on using a van during the fatal shootings.
Swaleha Joomun, who left Mauritius in 2003 with her 3 daughters to resettle in England, thus triggered a third round of investigations 19 years after the incident.

Kathi Lynn Austin, the American executive director of CAP, wrote about the formation of a new aircraft chartering company in Mauritius to enable activities of Viktor Bout, an international arms trafficker.
At the December 2014 National Assembly elections he was candidate of the Labour-MMM coalition in Constituency No.3 (Port Louis Maritime and Port Louis East) and was elected for the third time with 44.6% of votes.

He became the Leader of the Labour Party Parliamentary Group when party leader Navin Ramgoolam was not elected to parliament in 2014.
On 23 November 2015 Shakeel Mohamed was arrested for suspected conspiracy to commit murder, giving instructions to commit murder and procurement of revolver which resulted in the murders of 3 political activists Zulfikhar Bheeky, Babal Joomun and Yousouf Moorad by gunfire at Gorah Issac Road in Plaine Verte, Port Louis on 26 October 1996 during the campaign for municipal elections.
On 9 November 2015, accompanied by her lawyer Vikash Teeluckdharry, Babal Joomun's widow Swaleha Joomun went to the Central CID within Line Barracks to make a new statement to the police against 7 individuals, where she also supplied newspaper cuttings, and a USB drive to the investigators.
However in December 2015 the Director of Public Prosecutions dropped the charges against Mohamed.
In 2019 Shakeel Mohamed was candidate of Alliance Nationale (Labour-PMSD) at the November 2019 National Assembly elections in Constituency No.3 (Port Louis Maritime and Port Louis East) and was elected for the fourth time with 52.0% of votes.
