Alexander Gejadze, an expert hired by TV Pirveli, agrees with the report prepared by the National Forensics Bureau on the case of Lekso Lashkarava.

As Gejadze explains, the fatal outcome was caused by acute cardiovascular and respiratory failure developed as a result of heroin intoxication.

"Personally, in this particular case, I came to the final conclusion that the cause of Lekso Lashkarava's death was general intoxication due to heroin use, which resulted in severe cardiovascular and respiratory failure. Consequently, taking these factors into account, we got a tragic outcome — a fatal outcome. I would like to point out that chemical examination of blood and urine did not reveal alcohol, sleeping pills and psychotropic drugs. Urine examination revealed marijuana substance, tetrahydrocannabinol, as well as antiepileptic drug," said Gejadze.

According to him, the GYLA lawyer and representative attended the macroscopic examination of the corpse. In addition, he explains that GYLA did not have any question marks during the examination of the corpse.

"Due to the high interest, video and photos were taken at the initiative of the investigation. The process of macroscopic examination of the corpse was actively attended by me and a GYLA lawyer and representative with whom we had verbal communication. I made relevant explanations on all key issues," Gejadze said.
