Georgia’s president Saakashvili today called election racers not to use the case of prison abuse for political reasons. Speaking at a ceremony of handing over apartments to a group of Georgian army officers in Tbilisi suburb, as civil.ge reports, Saakashvili stated “Of course what has happened [referring to prison abuse] goes beyond any human principles and cannot be but a source of irritation and indignation. I have been so angry and outraged very rarely in my life, probably even never.” Saakashvili noted that Gldani prison No. 8 incidents overshadowed all the reforms Georgia had achieved so far.
“We should not throw out the baby with the bathwater – that’s the main lesson; politicians come and go; disgusting things may also happen in other countries, which are more developed [than Georgia], but it should be the society’s main instinct to make the country move forward and not to let it return back into dark past”, noted Georgia’s president.
