For Georgia’s Sharashidze: GD already made its decision, Constitutional Court is now merely tasked with formalising it

“Georgian Dream has already made its decision in the Constitutional Court, and the Court is now merely tasked with formalising it,” Giorgi Sharashidze, an MP and member of the Gakharia for Georgia party, said.

According to Sharashidze, all indications point to this conclusion, including the procedural aspects of the case.

“Not only did the Court fail to facilitate the examination of evidence, but it also grossly violated the rights of the respondent party. This entire process is being orchestrated from a single source. The so-called Chorchana case, fabricated against Giorgi Gakharia, was heard on an expedited basis, with proceedings continuing until midnight. The sole objective was to ensure that a ruling in the Chorchana case would be delivered before the Constitutional Court issued its decision.

This confirms that the process is controlled from a single source, and there is no indication that any other outcome will emerge,” Sharashidze said.

Proceedings have resumed at the Constitutional Court in connection with a petition seeking to ban several political parties.

The constitutional petition filed by Georgian Dream seeks to have the activities of the United National Movement, the Coalition for Change, Strong Georgia – Lelo, the Federalists and Gakharia for Georgia declared unconstitutional and the parties banned.
