Giorgi Chighladze, who was arrested in connection with an incident that occurred during a wedding at the Agarani Mamuli hotel, has been granted a 5,000-GEL bail as a preventive measure.

The above-mentioned decision was made by Judge Tamar Kapanadze of the Telavi District Court. She partially granted the prosecutor's motion and released Giorgi Chighladze from the courtroom.

Today's trial discussed the imposition of a preventive measure against the detainee.

The prosecutor's office requested the use of a 5,000-GEL bail for Chighladze, while the defense requested his release only on bail.

Prosecutor Beka Natelauri indicated the grounds for using bail as a preventive measure against the detainee. As the prosecutor noted, Chighladze arbitrarily went into the living room of the guests and physically assaulted one of the guests, first hitting her in the shoulder area, then in the face area, as a result of which she received a fractured nasal bone and a concussion.

The defense disagreed with the grounds presented by the prosecutor and noted that Giorgi Chighladze had been cooperating with the investigation from the very first hours and that he did not intend to hide anywhere.

"You have an injury to your neck, I wonder if it was done by the police," the judge addressed the detainee, to which he gave a negative answer.

When asked by the judge whether he admits guilt, the lawyer answered and noted that Chigladze agrees with the testimony he gave to the investigation.

For information, the incident occurred on July 18 at a hotel in the village of Ruispiri, Telavi Municipality. A verbal confrontation between wedding guests and Russian tourists staying at the hotel escalated into a physical one.

More specifically, Russian citizens insulted the wedding guests from the balcony of the hotel room and poured water on the equipment, after which the accused physically injured one of the women. In turn, the accused also indicates an injury to the throat.

Law enforcement officers arrested Giorgi Chigladze due to the incident.

He was charged under Part 1 of Article 120 of the Criminal Code, which implies intentional minor harm to health.

The aforementioned act provides for imprisonment for a term of up to 3 years.
