Unmasked Executioners of Georgian Dream

07 December 2024

TV Pirveli’s investigation uncovers the identities of the OMON leaders responsible for ordering the violent crackdown on pro-European demonstrations and the implementation of repressive measures against protesters.

Despite efforts to evade identification, TV Pirveli successfully revealed both the leaders and their subordinate units, exposing those who orchestrated violence against citizens.

On the day it aired, reporter Maka Chikhladze and cameraman Giorgi Shetsiruli were physically attacked live on air by masked individuals in civilian clothing while they were broadcasting the protest.
