"The case against photo reporters was a predetermined show of a government. They wish to turn the free media which did not make compromises with government into the slave. Saakashvili wished that journalists would be frightened over this case, but he could not expect such aggression from journalists which followed the fact of detention, " - Khatiashvili said.


He said, now Saakashvili has no ways back, and he has to force photo reporters to agree for the settlement. "Without the settlement the court trial will be open for public and public will see that there is no case against them. This case may cause the union of all society against Saakashvili, because of this he will make every effort to not to release these boys without settlement, " - he said.
