Ukrainian court refused to arrest Mikheil Saakashvili

Kyiv Administrtive court refused to take former Georgia President Mikheil Saakashvili under round-the-clock home arrest.

Appropriate decision was issued on December 11, 2017 by the presiding judge Larysa Tsokol. Mikheil Saakashvili is free for the period of investigation.

Thus, Ukrainian court did not support the request of the Prosecutor General’s office, who asked for a preventive measure for Mikheil Saakashvili as round-the-clock home arrest.

During press conference after his liberation, Mikheil Saakashvili says that does not have Presidential ambitions, but has the goal to wipe out the current oligarchs system ruling the country.

To remind, Mikheil Saakashvili was detained and imprisoned on Friday 8, 2017 in Kyiv and transported to SBU of Kyiv Oblast HQ.

We wrote earlier that Mikheil Saakashvili’s arrest is questionable from the legal point of view.
