A Georgian court has ordered the deportation of Azerbaijani journalist Afgan Sadigov in a rushed late night hearing just hours after his arrest. The ruling came despite an international protection order blocking his extradition to Azerbaijan.

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

Georgian authorities have adopted a series of laws that unjustifiably interfere with the right to peaceful assembly and are being used to suppress dissent.

People are being detained or slapped with ruinous fines for exercising their fundamental rights.

📢 Within the investigation initiated in connection with the BBC’s investigative film, the State Security Service summoned, as witnesses, the Director and an employee of the Human Rights Protection Program of the Georgian Young Lawyers’ Association (GYLA). Our employees will be questioned in the presence of a magistrate judge.

❗️ The summoning of GYLA’s employees as witnesses within the investigation launched by the State Security Service raises a strong suspicion that the aim is not to establish the truth, but rather to exert pressure on those individuals and organizations who speak about systemic rights violations.

❗️ We wish to state explicitly that such attempts at pressure will not alter our activities or objectives. GYLA’s employees will provide the investigation with information concerning the violations identified through monitoring. We continue to identify and document systemic human rights violations and to inform the public.

The BBC published an investigation suggesting Georgian riot police used a World War I–era chemical during the 2024 protests. The ruling Georgian Dream party rejected the claims and said it would sue the broadcaster. https://t.co/9TUCUcV7i8

📢 Non-governmental and media organizations have submitted a written communication to the European Court of Human Rights on the “Russian Law” case. The organizations have provided the court with detailed information about the deteriorating situation following the adoption of the “Russian Law”, the adoption of new laws restricting non-governmental and media organizations, their repressive enforcement, and a unified process of persecution of civil society organizations, the aim of which is to eliminate independent media and civil society organizations.

Up to 30 Georgian civil society organizations say they received inspection requests from the country’s Anti-Corruption Bureau under the Law on Grants, in what they call a new wave of authorities’ “persecution and pressure” on them.

Georgia: We urge 🇬🇪 authorities to reverse the decision to freeze the bank accounts of independent civil society organisations. They are the key to democratic pluralism & accountability.

We stand firmly with 🇬🇪 resilient & brave civil society. https://t.co/HGSgLctXe8

[IDFI @IDFIGeorgia]

📢 Today, the Georgian Prosecutor’s Office, within the framework of an absurd investigation, froze the bank accounts of 7 independent organizations that do Georgian work, serve Georgian citizens, and fight for Georgia’s European future.
