"According to Anzor Chubinidze, it would have been unequivocally proved that Mikheil Saakashvili and Temo Janashia did not commit crimes," said Beka Basilaia Chubinidze, lawyer of the third president, who refused to testify.
According to him, Chubinidze did not dare to testify because he was well aware that if he answered the defense's questions, it would prove that the case the ruling party was pursuing was politically motivated.
"This was a man who was determined to go to court and prove that spending on the presidential decree was mandatory for the SSPS.
Thus, by the testimonies of Anzor Chubinidze it would have been proven that Mikhail Saakashvili and Temo Janashia did not commit a crime and what happened today? Anzor Chubinidze was called to the prosecutor's office and told to come to his senses and if he gave the testimony, the whole case would have been ruined, therefore they had to think of some made up reason not to give a testimony," - said Basilaia after the trial
