INSTANCES OF ALLEGED POLITICAL HARASSMENT/INTIMIDATION AGAINST POLITICAL ACTIVISTS
2016-08-31 The UNM office in Tskaltubo reported that in early August, a representative of the Georgian Dream paid a visit to the management of Tskaltubo Marketplace to prohibit vendors from watching Rustavi 2. Apparently, vendors were watching Rustavi 2 on a screen available on the first floor of Tskaltubo Marketplace. According to a representative of the UNM office in Tskaltubo, Levan Gogelia, he had learned about it from vendors complaining that they were no longer allowed to watch Rustavi 2. However, they weren’t sure who provided the instructions to ban them from watching the channel.
