22-year-old Tedo Abramovi, arrested during anti-government protests on alleged drug possession charges that carried a potential 8–20 year sentence, has also been found NOT GUILTY

A total of four people were arrested during the protests on “drug possession” charges: Giorgi Akhobadze, Nikoloz Katsia, Anton Chechin, and Tedo Abramovi.

Akhobadze was the first to be acquitted a few weeks ago, and today Abramovi was also found not guilty.

The outcomes for Katsia and Chechin’s cases remain unknown.

In total, more than 60 people arrested during the anti-government/pro-EU protests have spent over eight months in pre-trial detention or have been sentenced to two to five years in prison. Only two have been acquitted, and both of those cases involved alleged drug possession.

I don’t see the logic in this repressions.

Why do they go after people and give ridiculous charges and give away what they are really after – to oppress and silence people, rather than prosecute them for whatever they did on the protest?

By doing this, aren’t they losing support even among their voters? Am I the only one failing to see logic in these arests?
