More than 300 people involved in mass hunger strike initiative, says UNM head

UNM Chairman Nika Melia said that more than 300 people have already declared a mass hunger strike, with the list of hunger-striking citizens being drawn up.''I am confident many more are yet to be involved in this,'' Melia told Mtavari Arkhi (the Main Channel). 

''We are declaring a mass hunger strike today,'' UNM Chairperson Nika Melia said at the Rustaveli rally site earlier.

Melia stressed that the hunger strike will continue before ex-pres. Mikheil Saakashvili is freed.
