Tbilisi. Blog post of the Chairman of the Georgian Young Lawyers' Association was posted on the web page of "This Affects You Too" campaign titled "Has anyone been punished for infringing upon others' private life?"."... We would like to address every official including MPs who previously were protecting human rights at their own will and currently doing the same is their direct obligation: persons in power have much stronger leverages for protecting human rights. Increased powers are accompanied by excessive responsibility as well. Obviously, the discussion over a dividing line between freedom of expression and the right to private life is extremely interesting. But in the current situation a much bigger priority is to hold those who created thousands of illegal recordings liable and to fully support the draft law (including the amended provisions), examination of which lacked quorum at the plenary session a week ago," says the blog post.
