Saakashvili's lawyer: the secret transportation of a politician from prison to hospital is an abduction from prison to hospital. He wrote about this on his Facebook page.
“This is called the abduction of a hostage – Mikhail Saakashvili. None of his human rights defenders, neither family members, nor doctors, nor the public defender know his condition and whereabouts, “the lawyer said.
Gvaramia appealed to the head of the Georgian Ministry of Health Ekaterina Tikaradze with a demand to report on the politician's condition and urged to publish a video of Saakashvili's stay in the Gldani hospital, where, according to media reports, he was taken.
“So far I do not know a single person or official who would have seen Saakashvili in Gldani with my own eyes,” he noted lawyer.
Earlier on Monday, Saakashvili's mother said that he was taken by helicopter from the prison in Rustavi. After that, the Special Penitentiary Service said that the ex-president was transferred to a prison hospital in the Gldani district of Tbilisi “to avoid deteriorating health and due to the increased danger.”
Mikhail Saakashvili was detained in Georgia on October 1 after that how he illegally entered the country. The politician was imprisoned under a sentence that was passed in absentia to him in the cases of the murder of banker Sandro Girgvliani several years ago. Saakashvili went on hunger strike in prison.
