One More Opposition MP Joins the Hunger Strike

Vasil Maglaperidze of the Burjanadze-Democrats, the member of outgoing Parliament, joined today the hunger strike launched by two members of the National Movement last night.

The hunger strikers urge the President to recognize opposition’s victory in the November 2 parliamentary elections.

The protest rally in front of the Parliament, demanding President Shevardnadze’s resignation, continues despite heavy rains in the Georgian capital. This is the fourth day of protests.
