Public Defender’s Echoes Restrictions on Freedom of Assembly
Tbilisi. On December 26, 2016, the Public Defender's representative met with Giorgi Gabedava, who is on a hunger strike in front of the Parliament building in Tbilisi. According to Gabedava, police did not allow him to put up a tent and a freestanding umbrella.
''The video, uploaded by Giorgi Gabedava on the social network, proves that police officers requested him to present a written permit of the City Hall for using a freestanding umbrella. The video clearly shows that weather was bad at that time. Gabedava also said that he was not allowed to put up a tent on the wide pavement in front of the Parliament building on Rustaveli Avenue.
The Public Defender calls on the law enforcement and other responsible agencies not to prevent the realization of freedom of assembly with artificial and illegal arguments'', is noted in the statement.
