In the same breath, Levan Ioseliani underscores the significance of taking every precaution to prevent any harm to minors involved. The law enforcement agency, he emphasizes, has a duty to scrutinize the context beforehand and set up a safe environment for the minors. If a presupposed analysis isn't accomplishable, he insists, the minor's immediate removal from the ongoing investigations should ensue by way of a family member, relative, or trusted individual. If this isn't feasible, the involvement of a social worker and psychologist becomes indispensable.

The Public Defender's office will delve into the facts and take subsequent actions as called for under their purview. The official statement reads:

Police raids were conducted on the residence of Aleko Tskitishvili, Executive Director of the Human Rights Centre, as well as the homes of journalist and Nanuka Fund founder Nanuka Zhorzholiani, and Mariam Bajelidze, one of the founders of the Sirtskhvilia (Shame) movement.

A recent statement has been issued by the Prosecutor's Office on the aforementioned house searches.
