Levan Khabeishvili - Dozens of "robocops" were torturing me for 27 minutes, of which, they say, they arrested two - I am ready to forgive my abusers with a personal example, but I can never forgive the mutilation of young people

These five people could not have committed the torture of 300-500 people. The main thing is that the ones who gave the orders, organized the torture, and are responsible for those actions should be punished, and not just five, but hundreds of abusers and torturers should be exposed, - Levan Khabeishvili, the chairman of the Political Council of the United National Movement, writes in a letter sent from prison.

According to Levan Khabeishvili, he has no personal vendetta against his abusers, although, according to him, the public deserves to know the identity of the five people who abused people during the protests in November-December 2024.

"For 27 minutes, dozens of "robocops" actually tortured me. Of these, they say, they arrested two. It is also unconfirmed for me whether these two were actually involved or not. I have an offer to the Prosecutor's Office - I forgive the arrested perpetrators of my violence and I am not motivated by any personal revenge. I am interested in the organizer of the torture of hundreds of young people.

The country has a new patriarch, for which I congratulate all of Georgia and personally Shio III. Accordingly, I am ready to forgive my perpetrators by personal example. I can never forgive the mutilation of young people, but I am ready for myself.

We must understand that these five people could not have committed the torture of 300-500 people. The main thing is to punish the ones who gave the orders, organized the torture, and were responsible, and to expose not five, but hundreds of perpetrators and torturers.

I appeal to the regime, as you can see, I do not ask for confession or forgiveness from my abusers, and I declare what concerns me personally. The public deserves to know who these five people are," Levan Khabeishvili wrote in a letter sent from prison.
