Med council enters prison to visit Mikheil Saakashvili

Med council has entered the 12th penitentiary in Rustavi, where the third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, is being held.

According to Saakashvili's representative, a group of doctors will get acquainted with Saakashvili's health condition on the spot.

As lawyer Shota Tutberidze told reporters, Saakashvili will not receive any medical intervention and the doctors of the council will simply study his condition.

According to him, Saakashvili is "noticeably weakened and has difficulty communicating."

Mikheil Saakashvili has been on hunger strike for 39 days already.
