Probationers will be able to fulfill their obligations and receive services with the innovative equipment created in Georgia.

From today, all this will be provided electronically for probationers. The first innovative technological device in Europe - Probbox was launched today in pilot mode.

The Minister of Justice Rati Bregadze together with his Deputy, Buba Lomuashvili presented the Probbox to the public.

Innovative technological equipment has been installed in public service halls and community centers in 6 big cities of Georgia - Tbilisi, Telavi, Gori, Kutaisi, Zugdidi and Batumi.

Offers on services and employment, information on cancellation of probation, request for mitigation, communication with the probation officer or booking a video conference with the convict - these and other needs will be offered by Probbox.

Prior to the introduction of the innovation, the probationers needed to come to the probation bureaus to fulfill their obligations. Installing the innovative device in public service halls and community centers will facilitate geographic access. The creation of an innovative electronic control mechanism for probationers was announced during the presentation of the ten-year action plan of the Ministry of Justice. Gradually, it will be available across the whole country.
