Shevardnadze talks of “repressions”

(Tbilisi, January 23, Civil Georgia) President Eduard Shevardnadze promised “real repressions” if the responsibility for tackling corruption is not acknowledged at all levels of the government.

President’s announcement followed the presentations of the Minister of Internal Affiars and the Control Chamber regarding the cases of embezzlement in the government.

“Some are taking these presentations way too lightly,” said Shevardnadze “I promise you repressions, real repressions if this will continue. We can find right people to make right legislation for it,” he added.
