Georgia uses the determination, metal fines and other criminal ways to guide the government against government

TBIsi, Georgia (AP) – nearly every year about year, Geot Chanturia joined gatherings in the Georgia parliament to the government and its increasing government. He has done this even though the multilingualism and a police personnel are addressed to overseers.

And the Civic Esker teacher continues new, even though she has compelled $ 102,000 to the fine from protests. That’s about 10 times to get AVa Average Georgia a year.

“We will be here to the end, and it is still here,” Chanturia told the associated media as they participated in another week in the church in the Nbibaisi capital.

The protests began when the government was stationed about joining the European Union. That day arrives after the governing long-term group Georgia Live have chosen the elections suspected of the suspected opposition.

Circles, larger and small, continues despite various breaches by government in laws that supervise Posters, Nongovernmental organizations and independent media.

More protests are organized this weekend to accompany home elections.

The pressure in the southern Caucasus of 3.7 million is painted by the Powerful neighbor Georgia and former Umperial Russia, where President Vladimir Putin has crossed. Georgia’s dream is accused of directing the country to influence the influence of Moscow.

Human rights are also robbed by Georgia and “rights problem.” Clampdown has never been in the country’s independent history and rises, Giorgi Gogia said, the European European and Central Asia Associate Director.

But a healthy Georgian community presses back, and it is a question of “who will brightly begin,” Gogia said. If it is a community and the community, they can rise from an authorized land, “which will be a great change from what Georgia was usually so far,” add.

Fines, beats and prison

Kerana Kerashvili joined the meeting with rain on Wednesday despite the fact that the 30-year-old Brother in December, was sentenced to disturb the organization, and two years in prison. Had refused unsuccessful cases.

Kerashvili told the AP Herm case “hard to watch.”

“All those boys and girls who are in prison now tried to protect our country from Pro-Russian power and the PRO-Russian Government,” he said.

The violent crack climbed after peaceful peace by the end of November 2024, over 400 people were arrested within two weeks; At least 300 reported hardship and other illegal treatment, according to Amnesty International. The group is accused of most of the cruelty occurred when we appear.

Between April 2024 and August 2025, at least 76 people had suffered criminal prosecutors in protest, by a period of imprisonment, according to Transparency International Georgia, an anti-corruption organization. The amount of persecution may be high now, and many increase scores have been stolen with a fine with a fine.

Chanturia said he was financially 56 times for allegations of road block – the usual charge became pregnant by protesters. He said he was not payers and did not want. Under the new laws, failure to do so can be sentimental.

Gogia Kahrw says it is difficult to measure how many people are treated, but estimate that it can be thousands. Penalties are issued with automation, such as high traffic and a traffic fines, and the authorities use the existing facial cameras.

Sometimes those who are financed do not protest but just that they were in the meeting. Mariam Nikradze, a prominent teacher and partner of the Independent News Site Oc Media, appointed 20,000 LARIs (approximately $ 7,300) in the payment four times. He said he was holding to the exhibitions.

Javid Ahmedov, a student from Azerbaijan, told AP that puts a protest in July when the cameras saw him. You have learned that he was fined 10,000 LARI (about $ 3,700) when he returned to Georgia last month to complete his studies at the Georgian community center.

Eventually he was denied entry, including the completion of his qualifications and his US scholarship.

“I have to be in Georgia,” he told AP in Germany, where he is now a student of exchange. “But it is a great question.”

Opposition parties, media and NGOs targeted

The authorities also refer against opposition politicians and groups, as well as the rights activists and the media.

In the summer, eight opposers were imprisoned in prison for refusing to cooperate with Parliament’s investigation, and two were arrested later on different charges. Opposition to the prisoners are politically motivated.

In August, the authorities soften seven groups of bank accounts. The prosecutor’s office suspects that they offered protesters like masks, peppers and protective glasses used to collide with the police. Organizations were journalists who cover circles.

The government is trying to create an account of an effort to overthrow the government, violating the Constitution and violence, said Guram immunadile Center, a freight budget.

Another purpose for ‘stopping all private players in the country, reducing or reducing free democratic spaces in the country, (once) and making media activists or other activists who can support democracy, “he said.

The Georgian Dream has filed a few independent TV stations and reveals strategies to apply for the Constitutional Court to announce the opposing opposition, with the national unity, and others act in compliance with the Constitution.

Prime Minister Irakla in the Portfoliologist in the last week Thoma will aim for everyone who is under the untroductor of the United Nationsman, under the external influence – “everyone.”

He revealed that protests were organized and supported overseas.

“No foreign agents will be able to remove the conditions of the country,” referring to a law that allows for the NGOs, media and some “agendary agents.”

The intended groups are always shaking. Seven-based fees have vowed to “fight against authorized regulations and Russian Regulations, to ensure that the opponents of democratic and Europe are placed on our Constitution.”

It wants EU stress on government

Gogia says the problem represents the “strong walk” from the fierterable “country, which has the powerful personality and the most opposite society and the human rights community. “

HRW and other Rights Local Organizations last month urged the EU and member of members to “exercise all tools to harass the rights of the judiciary, and the persecution of human rights and community activists.”

Besides the suspension of EU integration, Georgian authorities still care about what the EU does or say, “Gogia said, to support the membership and government support.

Kobakhodze said this week the purpose of EU membership was 2030 ‘Reasonable and possible.’

However, the European Commission official told the “the oppressive actions taken by Georgia authorities from any expected in the election country.”

“The EU is ready to look at Georgia to the EU approach if the authorities take relief measures to return a lot of money,” the official, which is not authorized to comment and thus spoke in the form of anonymity.
