Rati Bregadze: "If He Is Transferred to The N18 Facility, Naturally, His Safety Will Be Protected"
"None of the council’s conclusions said that Mikheil Saakashvili needed urgent hospitalization, and especially to a civilian clinic, the term was not mentioned at all," Justice Minister, Rati Bregadze told Rustavi 2.
"If he is transferred to the N18 facility, and this will happen if he needs to be hospitalized, naturally, his safety will be protected. All necessary measures are taken for this. The head of one of the TV stations talked about the fact that a riot was planned there for the subsequent assassination of Mikheil Saakashvili - in this regard, the General Inspectorate of the Ministry of Justice asked him to come and provide information, but he did not do so. Also, we later heard that there was a talk about a Gori military hospital where he was supposed to be kidnapped from by an Ossetian gang - these people should refrain from telling these tales once and for all. Similar kinds of lies are spread every day. Lies will be spread - we will always respond to the public with the truth. We do not even answer them, we only answer our society, the people are tired... I will tell you that when someone dares to talk about torture, maybe these people themselves are carrying out moral terror and forcing prisoner Saakashvili not to stop the hunger strike?! When they are calling on him live on TV not to dare to stop it, otherwise he, as a politician, will be ruined... They should end once and for all the use of this prisoner for their own political purposes. They themselves are abusing prisoner Saakashvili most of all," said Rati Bregadze.
