­According to Natia Mezvrishvili, a member of “Gakharia for Georgia,” the perimeter at the scene where Giorgi Gakharia was attacked was deliberately not secured, and the police arrived late, and “there is evidence of this.”

As Mezvrishvili writes on Facebook, the destruction of evidence is already evident.

“There is evidence that the perimeter at the crime scene was deliberately not secured and the police arrived late.

I spoke to the investigator, and it is in their interest to remove everything (which is entirely possible), including their cameras.

The destruction of evidence is already evident. Therefore, they will have to investigate this too and prove that they did not destroy it,” Mezvrishvili writes.

The leader of “Gakharia for Georgia,” Giorgi Gakharia, was attacked in Batumi. The attack on the opposition politician took place last night at the Sheraton Hotel. Gakharia was taken to the clinic, but later left the hospital. According to the doctor, Giorgi Gakharia has a fractured nasal bone and a concussion.

In addition to the attack on Giorgi Gakharia, a confrontation took place in the same hotel with Zviad Qoridze, a representative of the non-governmental sector. According to Qoridze, he was confronted by Dimitri Samkharadze, a representative of the Georgian Dream, and his entourage.
