Devrishadze accused of espionage in favour of Russia confirms information of "Curieri" about the contract signed between the Ministry of Defense and himself

Defense Minister Levan Izoria might not be able to get into Mamuka Bakhtadze"s renewed government. The reason is a scandal related to the spy of Russia, with whom the Defense Ministry has signed a contract. Petre Devrishadze, who was detained by the previous government for espionage charges, responded to the journalists" questions and confirmed the information released by "Courier" on Saturday. Until now, Devrishadze is still a person who has been convicted as the military intelligence agent of the occupant country.

The opposition summons the Defense Minister to the parliament for explanations. Politicians agree that the money transfer from the Georgian army to the Russian intelligence agent is equal to the treason of the homeland.

Izoria has not appeared before TV cameras today. The Ministry of Defense released only a written statement and said that it does not violate the law by buying goods from the convict spying in favor of Russia. The Ministry of Defense says that Petre Devrishadze"s company is not involved in secret procurement and there are no threats.
