Tina Khidasheli, leader of the Republic Party, stated that on November 7 law enforcers physically assaulted her while dispersing the demonstration. “In addition to being beaten, my windpipe was badly damaged because of released gas and I cannot eat yet,” said Khidasheli.
According to the Georgian Ministry of Labor, healthcare and Social Welfare the gas that was used to disperse the demonstrators was not dangerous to life and the symptoms of the poisoning disappear within a day.
