"David Narmania successfully continues the practice of the central government to use investigative organs for the purpose of political pressure," there is said in joint statement of fractions of National Movement of Parliament and Tbilisi City Assembly, reports GHN.
"National Movement" considers that for the financial-utility revision of organizations under subordination of City Hall there are two offices: Revision Commission of City Assembly and City Service of Internal Audit and Monitoring.
"Yesterday Tbilisi Mayor, David Narmania made statement about the fact that he applied investigative division of the Ministry of Finance to begin financial-utility revision of the organizations that are under subordination of City Hall. The investigative division researches documentation of nearly ten organizations at the request of the Mayor.
To say the least it is strange that Tbilisi Mayor applies investigative offices to carry out revision, when in self-government system there are two offices, Revision Commission of City Assemble and Civil Service of Internal Audit and Monitoring not to mention State Audit Service; their primary function is to research activity of these organizations, to unveil imperfections and to make reaction on.
It is clear that David Narmania successfully continues the practice determined my central government, to use investigative organs for the purpose of political pressure. This is especially clear on the background of the events that take place in City Hall, when people are persuaded to leave positions, because their places should be accepted by the activists of "Georgian Dream" and relatives of officials. In case if David Narmania is really interested to have information about activity of these organizations he have to order the process of inspection to already existed watchdog agencies and only in case of violation had to apply to investigative offices. Accordingly we demand Dabid Narmania to make public the letter of appeal that the investigative organs react on. Supposedly this kind of latter doesn't include the violations of every organization that confirms once again that investigative office of the Ministry of Finance performs political order of "Georgian Dream".
Unequivocal that large scale attack in the investigative office of the Ministry of Finance on Tbilisi City Hall has no connection to the activity of the Hall and only aims threatening and persuading people that work there, especially on the background of total inactivity and spinelessness to crate illusion in the population that something is going on," said in the statement.
At the same time "National Movement" wants David Narmania to realize that he is Mayor of Tbilisi.
"Accordingly he have to be protector of interests of every person that woks if this system and shouldn't try to inhibit them and to make them leave their jobs using investigative organs. We remind that instead of rude and violent actions his collaborators expect maximum support while working and Tbilisians implementation of programs and ideas, that will improve quality of their living," states "National Movement".
