MOST LIKELY CASES OF POLITICAL PRESSURE / THREATS AND CAMPAIGN OBSTRUCTION
2020-10-23
Alliance of Patriots mayoral candidate for Kaspi Municipality, Ilia Kitriashvili is accusing representatives of the Mayor’s Office of pressuring local party supporters. According to him, the Alliance of Patriots supporters were threatened and intimidated, with the aim to prevent them from attending the rally at the Freedom Square on October 3. A representative of the Mayor’s Office approached a resident of village Metekhi, Giorgi Gejadze and threatened to cancel his social assistance if he continued to mobilize supporters from village Metekhi.
Gejadze has refused to provide the name of the individual because he is a fellow-villager and he does not want to ruin their relationship. He also believes that he may face bigger problems.
