Georgian Dream’s Member Blames Head of CSD Regional Office and Deputy Head of District Police Office in Oppression

August 13, 2012

Member of the Coalition Georgian Dream Nikoloz Kikilashvili, a resident of Tsnori small town in Signagi district, blames Soso Tsitsishvili, head of Kakheti regional department of the Constitutional Security Department of MIA and Besik Lekiashvili, deputy head of Signagi district police in his persecution.

Nikoloz Kikilashvili told ICK that according to the instructions of Nugzar Abulashvili, Signagi district majoritiarian deputy of the National Movement, Tsitsishvili and Lekiashvili demanded him to leave Georgian Dream and Georgia; unless he obeys their demands, law enforcement officers threatened him with imprisonment.

“They came to my home by jeep. They said they represented security service and head of Kakheti regional office of Security Service Soso Tsitsishvili was calling me to his office. I am not a criminal; I have not done anything wrong so I followed them; however, I did not expect them to verbally and physically assault me. They took me to a forest-park near cemetery where there are cottages. Soso Tsitsishvili, Beso Lekiashvili and one more person were waiting for me in one of the cottages; I did not know who the third person was; he did not say anything. Tsitsishvili and Lekiashvili told me to quit Georgian Dream and leave Georgia immediately. They gave me one week time to do it; otherwise they threatened me with imprisonment. I said I was not going to obey their demands. I spent about 20 minutes in the cottage; they verbally and physically assaulted me. It was ordered by Nugzar Abulashvili. Several days ago, Abulashvili demanded my 14-year-old son to take off Georgian Dream’s t-shirt but he did not,” Nikoloz Kikilashvili told ICK.

ICK got in touch with Nugzar Abulashvili but did not comment on the issue. “Come on; who obeys my orders?” Abulashvili said and cut off line.

Abulashvili is head of Signagi district office of the United National Movement.

We could not get in touch with Soso Tsitsishvili and Besik Lekishvili.
