July 5th crime had no organizers, March 7-8 storming of Parliament was organized and if we follow the low standard, Giorgi Vashadze, other opposition leaders are the first to be arrested - Kobakhidze

From the legal point of view, the crime of July 5 had no organizers - on March 7-8, when the Parliament was violently stormed, the gathering was organized, said today the Chairman of the Georgian Dream.

“Legally, it was impossible to identify the organizers until now. No facts are established where the crime was organized. The organizer doesn’t appear. When some people talk about punishing the organizers, then they should say who was legally the organizer.

I want to remind you that on March 7-8, when there was a violent storming of the Parliament, there were direct calls, a gathering was organized, and moreover, people were called to besiege the Parliament building.

This siege was followed by direct acts of violence. If we follow a low standard, Giorgi Vashadze and other opposition leaders are the first to be arrested, but this is a low standard and very risky.

I want to say that from the legal point of view, the July 5 crime had no organizers. In any case, this is the legal situation to date. I don’t know if the Prosecutor’s Office will establish anything.

Organized crime means what - for example, if Koka Morgoshia had called on specific people to go to a certain place and physically assault a certain person. The organizer tells us to go to a specific place and abuse a specific person - there was no such call”, - said Irakli Kobakhidze.
