🇬🇪 #Georgia: #HumanRights orgs @HRHTbilisi, @Shamemovement & 3 others had their bank accounts frozen, in retaliation for their support to protesters amid the November 2024 demonstrations.

@hrw
V.concerned by the freezing of bank accounts of 5 NGOs in #Georgia, including @HRHTbilisi, who do vital human rights work. That this forms part of an investigation into the Nov/Dec 24 protests is disturbing. I call for the decision to be reversed & attacks on HRDs & peaceful protestors to be prosecuted @GeorgiaGeneva
❗We respond to the investigation initiated by the General Prosecutor’s Office of “Georgian Dream,” within the framework of which the bank accounts of several organizations and funds, including those of the HRHT, have been frozen 👉 https://t.co/ruc9SzFaSw
We condemn the decision by the Office of #Georgia’s Prosecutor General to freeze the bank account of Human Rights House Tbilisi. We stand in solidarity with @HRHTbilisi and call on the authorities to reverse their actions immediately. https://t.co/hNxKqwUJ90 @HRHFoundation

🛎️ 5 human rights organisations have had their accounts frozen after being accused of financially supporting and socially endorsing protesters against the re-election of the Georgian Dream Party in October 2024. In reality, they provided legal and social support to arrested protesters.
Front Line Defenders condemns this decision and urges Georgian authorities to immediately revert the decision. This has occurred solely as a result of the organisations' peaceful and legitimate human rights work.
