Imedi's attack on Tsotne Gamsakhurdia's human rights

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly versionSend to friendSend to friendPDF versionPDF version

Tsotne Gamsakhurdia is to stand trial on a charge of attempted murder and of spying for Russia. So how does Imedi TV, propped up by "state aid" and run by Mikheil Saakashvili's former minister and right hand man, Giorgi Arveladze, treat him? Does it repsect his right to be presumed innocent?

No, it takes his ex-wife and asks her a lot of predjudicial questions while she is allegedly hooked up to a polygraph ("lie detector").

Welcome to Georgia's idea of a fair trial.

This is not about what anyone, let alone his ex-wife, thinks of Tsotne Gamsakhurdia. It is about his right to a fair trial without prejudice.
