The Constitutional Court of Georgia has released a statement on Rustavi 2 case. Due to high public interest and information spread in media by the First Vice-Speaker of the Parliament , Manana Kobakhidze, the Constitutional Court has provided further explanation. The statement noted that some of the information spread by Manana Kobakhidze in the media is imcorrect.

The statement reads:

"On November 2, 2015 the Constitutional Court of Georgia decided to consider a constitutional complaint on the merits brought by “Broadcasting Company Rustavi 2 Ltd” and “TV Company - Sakartvelo Ltd” vs the Parliament of Georgia (Registration N675). Due to high public interest and information spread in media by the First Vice-Speaker of the Parliament , Manana Kobakhidze, the Constitutional Court considers it necessary to provide further explanation.

The Constitutional Court consideres each case within the period which is reasonably necessary to address specific issues. The period of consideration of the case depends on the complexity, importance and relevance of the issue.

For example, the Constitutional Court considered the merits of the case of "Vakhtang Masurashvili and Onise Mebonia vs Parliament of Georgia" where the plaintiff was presented by Mrs. Manana Kobakhidze (15 December 2006 N1 / 3 / 393,397 judgment), and took the judgement within 15 days. The Constitutional Court convinced that the constitutional rights for a fair trial and freedom of rights were violated , decided the case in the possiblly short period, in order to minimize the use of imprisonment.

The Constitutional Court conducts accelerated consideration when delay in the hearing / resolution will not have any result. The Court found that "Broadcasting company Rustavi 2" and "TV Sakartvelo " constitutional complaints belonged to such a category and passed a decision in the shortest period of time.
