Otar Partskhaladze: A case against me in Georgia was fabricated on the orders of foreign patrons – I am being persecuted for fabricated crimes, for something I did not commit
A case against me in Georgia was fabricated on the orders of foreign patrons – I will do everything to strengthen fraternal relations between the Georgian and Russian peoples, former Prosecutor General of Georgia Otar Romanov-Partskhaladze said in an interview with the Russian state outlet Moskovskij Komsomolets.
“I am being persecuted for fabricated crimes, for something I did not commit. They are trying to take away my historical homeland. International criminal groups have declared a hunt against me. I am not afraid. All of this best confirms the correctness of the path I have chosen. I am ready to sacrifice my life for the happy future of our children.
It is time to leave behind the grievances of the past, created by the enemies of our nation, and move forward. The Georgian people must open their eyes and understand who acts in their interests and who weaves intrigues, serving foreign patrons and destroying our identity, traditions, and unity. This is how we will be able to preserve our sovereignty, our traditions, and our faith,” Partskhaladze said.
He also spoke about strengthening “fraternal relations” between the Georgian and Russian peoples.
“I have walked a long and dangerous path in the service of my homeland – Georgia. And today I have found myself exactly at the point from which I know a new chapter will begin in relations between our fraternal nations…
Orthodox faith unites us…
I will do everything to strengthen fraternal relations between the Georgian and Russian peoples, based on respect, unity, and joint resistance to external threats,” Partskhaladze stated.
For reference, the former Prosecutor General Otar Romanov-Partskhaladze is accused of organizing the contract and financially motivated intentional murder of businessman Levan Jangveladze. He has been charged under Article 25/109, subparagraph “n” of the Criminal Code of Georgia, which concerns organizing a contract killing for financial gain. In addition, Partskhaladze has been charged in the so-called call center case.
Partskhaladze has been sentenced to pre-trial detention in absentia.
