Civil society organizations are beginning to document crimes and other forms of repression and appeal to alleged victims of violence to provide relevant evidence. A joint briefing was held in the Association of Young Lawyers.

According to the chairman of GYLA, Nona Kurdovanidze, the said evidence will be used with the informed consent of the victims to study the extent of violations, and to send cases to the European Court of Human Rights and address them to the UN treaty bodies.

"When all state institutions in the country refuse to enforce the law, it is the duty of the civil society to collect evidence and help the victims on the way to seek justice. To all victims - we are with you. The information you provide and your identity will be treated confidentially with full consideration of your consent. If you have experienced or become a victim or witness of various types of violence, including torture, please fill out the form that we will make public, or provide us with the relevant information via e-mail - evidence@gyla.ge. Our team will contact you and inform you about the next steps. This evidence will be used with the informed consent of the victims for various purposes: studying the extent of violations and potentially preparing cases for sending cases to the European Court of Human Rights, addressing UN treaty bodies and referring to the International Criminal Court. We are ready to quickly process and analyze all these evidences. Many organizations are involved in this process. Any question that each person may have regarding this process can contact us and we will provide more details about the process step by step", said Nona Kurdovanidze.
