All the leading political leaders are in the dock, and none of us know what we are accused of, we only know the article, we do not know what actions were - we will also file a motion to open the hearing. Hopefully, the judge will get over his irrational anger, - said the leader of the Coalition for Changes, Nika Gvaramia, who was granted bail of 30,000 GEL as a restrictive measure in the so-called sabotage case.
According to him, it is impossible to defend himself, since he is practically accused of nothing.
"The person who is the judge in our trial said even 6 years ago that I deserved 12 years in prison. Today, he cannot be neutral. He did not avoid it, and look at how he behaved during the session. The only thing that was unnecessary and unexpected in this situation, for this court, is why people were expelled from the session. All the leading political leaders are in the dock, and none of us know what we are accused of, we only know the article, we do not know what actions were. Of course, the public must know this, we will also file a motion regarding the opening of the session. Hopefully, the judge will overcome the irrational anger. We must follow our path and achieve a result. It is clear what the Dream and its court will do.
Here I am, for example, I do not know what action I have committed that, in the opinion of the prosecutor's office, contradicts the law, how should I respond? It is impossible for me to defend myself. I am practically accused of nothing. The indictment is half a page long and is an article of the Criminal Code. When I find out what action I committed, which, in the opinion of the prosecutor's office, contradicts the legislation of Georgia, then I will be able to respond.
No Georgian politician has worked on imposing sanctions on Georgia. If imposing sanctions on Ivanishvili is equivalent to imposing sanctions on Georgia, then anyone who says so is admitting that Ivanishvili rules this country, which is unconstitutional,” Gvaramia noted.
When asked whether they will be punished for sanctioning Ivanishvili, Gvaramia answers: “That's how it turns out, of course.”
