For the past two days, the Public Defender and the Public Defender’s Office have been working under a special regime. Representatives of the Public Defender are making visits to several penal establishments simultaneously. At the same time, we are responding to each fact of violation of human rights that was made public during the past two days. The Public Defender has spread a special statement regarding the mentioned. As it is said in the statement, the Public Defender will permanently provide the public with information about the situation in penal establishments. At present, there is complete quiet in all the establishments we have visited. “Due to the recent developments, representatives of the media and various persons have asked on several occasions why the Public Defender, George Tugushi, has not visited the penal establishment personally and has not appeared in different news programs. The Public Defender was supposed to return to Tbilisi as early as September 18, though, due to sharp deterioration of his health, this turned out to be impossible. In the nearest future, the Public Defender will hold a briefing on these developments in person, as soon as his health allows him to do so. The Public Defender is coordinating the work of the Office around the clock and is in constant touch with news outlets”, - is said in the statement. internet.ge
