Georgia: CFWIJ Condemns The Threatening Attack On Darina Kamadadze

Darina Kamadadze, a correspondent for On.ge was threatened by a member of European Georgia on the day of the election. Darina was covering polling station 14 in the village of Azizkendi, Marneuli where she spotted an armed man. They made the gun hidden under his coat. When Darina inquired about the weapon, he said that it was a phone. When Darina tried to record him on camera, the armed man hit the camera and threatened her to stop recording. CFWIJ condemns the violence towards the journalist and asks European Georgia to explain this on behalf of their observers. We also demand law enforcement authorities in Georgia apprehend the culprit and investigate the matter.
