Protesters against quarantine measures stage concert in Tbilisi

Animators, employees of entertainment and fitness centres, and ski resorts have demanded to cancel restrictions related to coronavirus. They staged a street concert on the steps of the Georgian Parliament.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that since February 1, Georgian authorities began gradually removing restrictions related to COVID-19. Protesters believe the government is doing it too slowly.

On February 6, employees of fitness centres and ski resorts, animators and cultural workers organized a performance action in Tbilisi. They insist on lifting the restrictions.

The action will continue until protesters' demands are met, one of the activists, Gega Salukvadze, has stated.

In a video posted on the YouTube channel of the "Sputnik-Georgia" edition, protesters are holding a concert right on the steps of the Georgian Parliament. While some of them are performing, other protesters are standing with posters.

  • Compensation decrease for illegal prosecution violates rights of KBR resident

    The court ruling, which awarded Madin Gubzhokov compensation of 30,000 roubles for unlawful criminal prosecution, is incomparable with the moral harm caused by the actions of Azamat Kyaov, a former law enforcer. The amount is ridiculous and should be appealed against, lawyers and human rights defenders have stated.
