You can"t call a person a spy when there is no evidence – it is the obligation of the state to protect a citizen of Georgia - Irakli Kobakhidze

We need evidence. You can’t call a person a spy - there is no such evidence, said the Chairman of the Georgian Dream, while commenting the sanctioning of the former Prosecutor General of Georgia, Otar Partskhaladze.

“When a citizen of Georgia becomes an agent of a foreign country, especially if this state occupies 20 percent of the territory, it is a crime according to our legislation, but in such cases, an examination and investigation should be conducted, then the case goes to court, and if it is established that the person is indeed an agent, the state takes appropriate measures.

Therefore, it is absolutely logical to talk about the fact that we need evidence, you cannot call a person an agent. [Salome] Zourabichvili repeated the same. She called someone an agent. You can’t call a person an agent until there is no evidence, until there is no verdict, we are talking about this standard, nothing more, this is what annoys the opposition”, - said Irakli Kobakhidze.
