HRC Observer was Verbally Insulted by Chairperson and Member of Election Commission

October 30, 2021
At polling station N39 of Telavi election district N17, a member of the commission regulating the flow of voters allowed two voters with expired ID cards to enter the polling station, which was noticed by one of the observers and the persons with wrong IDs had to leave the polling station.  Regarding this fact, the HRC observer called on the chairperson of the commission to pay more attention to the flow regulator so that similar facts would not occur again. In response, the chairperson of the commission and one of the members of the commission, who turned out to be a spouse of the chairperson verbally abused the HRC observer. Due to this incident, the observer wrote a complaint at the polling station and demanded that the chairperson and the member of the commission be held accountable for the action. HRC filed a complaint with the district election commission claiming the same actions against the chairperson and the member of the PEC.
