Tbilisi City Court has satisfied the lawsuit of lawyer Mikheil Ramishvili, who asked the court to order diocesan bishop Iakob to make a public apologize for insulting his business reputation.
Mikheil Ramishvili told InterPressNews that upon the decision of judge Irakli Kopaliani, diocesan bishop Iakob was ordered to make a public apologize to Mikheil Ramishvili for insulting his business reputation and awarded a symbolic amount – GEL 1 in non-pecuniary damages.
“Diocesan bishop Iakob told Iberia TV as if I was an informer of bishop Petre, an agent in the case of Giorgi Mamaladze and Sandro Girgvliani and as if I used to provide Data Akhalaia with information. The judge considered it as defamation and ordered the diocesan bishop to make a public apologize. As for in non-pecuniary damages, I asked the symbolic amount – GEL 1 as dignity and honor are unvalued,” Mikheil Ramishvili said.
