Rati Bregadze: Giorgi Margvelashvili insults the worthy employees of the penitentiary system by spreading lies about torture - it's a pity that he ended up on the side of the disguised red army, intentionally or unintentionally

According to the Minister of Justice, Rati Bregadze, former President Giorgi Margvelashvili should take into account that by spreading lies about torture, he insults thousands of worthy employees of the penitentiary system, "which is totally unacceptable". Rati Bregadze writes about this on Facebook.

According to him, in the recent public statements of Margvelashvili, it is heard that the convicts are killed by torture in Georgia.

“This 'opinion' is a lie and a baseless manipulative accusation.

A person who was the president of Georgia, had the responsibility of being the head of state and the great honor of being the supreme commander of the Defense Forces of Georgia, should always act in accordance with the national interests of the state, including after the expiration of the presidential term.

By slandering the government and civil servants of his own country, the former president appeared to the public as an associate member of the radical opposition obsessed with the return of power, which strives to damage the country's domestic and foreign image by all possible means.

Mr. Giorgi, as a former president, should take into account that by spreading lies about torture, he insults thousands of worthy employees of the penitentiary system, which is completely unacceptable.

Making the gravest crime accusations peremptorily, without any objective basis, was not the style of action of Schumann, Adenauer, Monet or other architects of European unity. Such behavior was a hallmark of Soviet propagandists.

It is a pity that the former president, intentionally or unintentionally, ended up on the side of the disguised Red Army, which has nothing to do with true Western values," said Rati Bregadze.
