"Today, I am returning to Rustavi Prison from Vivamedi Clinic. The first stage of treatment is complete," Elene Khoshtaria, the imprisoned leader of the Droa party, writes on social media.

According to her, the second stage of treatment will continue in a mixed format—taking place both in prison and at Vivamedi.

“Today, I am returning to Rustavi Prison from Vivamedi Clinic. The first stage of treatment is complete. From now on, I will continue my treatment in a mixed format—both at the prison and at Vivamedi. I will visit the clinic once a month to receive medication and undergo check-ups.

Many thanks to Vivamedi —to every nurse, cleaner, and staff member—for their attentiveness. I must also note that we maintained a constructive and professional working relationship with the Penitentiary Service. Thank you to all the officers I interacted with during this period; I am glad to have met them. I will speak at length about them once I am released.

For now, I am returning to the Rustavi Women's Prison for a month.

Many thanks to my doctors—Maka Ioseliani, Ani Kavtaradze, and everyone who made my treatment possible,” writes Khoshtaria.
