Additional information:

The Main Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia admitted that it was investigating the attack on 44-years-old blogger Vladimer Ivanovi by the police officers. It is known that the police lured the blogger out of the house and hit him on the head a few times. Ambulance doctors confirmed this. Also, the Facebook post that caused such a reaction from the police disappeared. The mother of the blogger said that police officers fooled Ivanovi by forcing him to open the door to pass the COVID-19 check. Two of them beat the blogger, while the third was filming the process.
