Law enforcers force opposition hunger strikers to leave Zugdidi City Council session hall

The opposition hunger strikers have been forced by law enforcers to leave the Zugdidi City Council session hall.­

At this moment, the hunger strikers are in the room of the United National Movement faction, where they were initially.

The hunger strikers had been addressed several times to leave the session hall, but they claimed that they were not going to leave the hall, after which they were taken from the hall by force.

The newly elected members of the Zugdidi City Council, who are on a hunger strike demanding that Mikheil Saakashvili be taken to a civil hospital, brought their mattresses in the City Council session hall earlier today. They said that in this way, they were protesting against the start of the discussion of the draft budget 2022 and its accelerated adoption by the deputies of the previous City Council.

Four newly elected deputies and a doctor went on a hunger strike in the room of the United National Movement faction in the Zugdidi City Council building on November 15. They are demanding that Mikheil Saakashvili be transferred to a civilian clinic.
