There is only one way to balance this injustice - the president's decision to pardon Nika Gvaramia - Khazaradze

"Nika Gvaramia's imprisonment and today's court decision once again confirm the power of one man in the country.
The court has been hijacked and turned into an instrument of revenge. In terms of content, today's decision is absurd, illegal and indicative of the intimidation of others and the stifling of independent media.
There is only one way to counterbalance this injustice: the president's decision to pardon Niki Gvaramia.
She should stand above her own grudge and for the sake of the public forget about the criticism she received even from Nika.
 The tyranny of the Soviet Prosecutor's Office and the court headed by Bidzina must end!
A country with such injustice - neither Europe nor the citizens of Georgia need it!"

Mamuka Khazaradze, leader of Lelo Georgia, writes about Nika Gvaramia's detention by the appeals court.
