The Tbilisi City Court imposed detention as a preventive measure for Tornike Toshkhua and Mindia Shervashidze, who were detained in connection with group violence on Rustaveli Avenue.

"The prosecution stated that Nikoloz Javakhishvili was firing pyrotechnics, which we do not deny, and it is visible in the video, but firing pyrotechnics into the air is not a crime," said Guja Avsajanishvili, the lawyer for Nikoloz Javakhishvili and Insaf Aliev, who were detained during the protests, after the court hearing concluded.

"The evidence presented and cited by the prosecution does not confirm the alleged offense. The court has only one option—to declare Zviad Tsetskhladze not guilty," said Davit Chikadze, the lawyer of Zviad Tsetskhladze, who is accused of organizing and leading group violence.
