Court imposes a fine of 2000 GEL on beaten activist Davit Katsarava

Davit Katsarava, a member of the Anti-Occupation Movement, who was arrested and severely beaten at the rally against the Law On Transparency of Foreign Influence was recognized by the court as a violator in one of the two articles.

The decision was made by Tbilisi City Court judge, Koba Chagunava.

Based on the judge’s decision, Davit Katsarava was fined 2000 GEL as an administrative fine.

Judge Chagunava terminated the proceedings against Davit Katsarava for committing an act stipulated by Article 166 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, which implies petty hooliganism, due to lack of evidence and lack of confirmation.

Regarding Article 173, which involves disobeying and insulting a police officer, the judge recognized it as a violation of the law.

Judge Chagunava claimed that he had seen the footage and heard from Katsarava himself during the explanation stage that he told the representatives of the special forces that they were representatives of the Russian government. The judge said such an appeal is insulting to persons who serve to protect the history of Georgia.

By the decision of Koba Chagunava, Katsarava was deprived of the right to carry firearms for a period of two years.

Davit Katsarava himself did not attend the announcement of the decision.

In addition, the special investigation service started an investigation into the fact of violent abuse of authority by the police against Davit Katsarava. Katsarava has the status of a victim in the mentioned case.
