"Bidzina Ivanishvili"s people on the leading positions" - "Transparency International Georgia" has published a report . According to the NGO, the former Prime Minister of Georgia has appointed 17 people from his circle to the top position of the country in the last 2 years. Among them are Chief Prosecutor Shalva Tadumadze, Head of Revenue Service and Deputy Head of State security. These persons started their career in the bank "Cartu" or other companies related to Ivanishvili.
Influential NGO researchers believe that in this country the informal rule of the country has been confirmed.
Former employees of "Cartu Group" and "Elita Burji" occupy high positions in the executive power, government, law enforcement agencies, local self-governments, court and public broadcaster.
According to the survey, 38 people associated with Bidzina Ivanishvili occupied high positions in 2015, but the number increases from year to year.
TI Georgia prepared the survey based on asset declarations of officials.
The civil sector indicates a dangerous tendency of nepotism in public agencies.
The organization"s survey included nine officials, whose family members are still employed in Bidzina Ivanishvili"s companies. Transparency International Georgia plans to publish another research in this direction in the nearest future.
