Irakli Kobakhidze: Nika Melia is a criminal

If this issue is raised in the parliament and, like I said, it will be raised, I will  obviously support it, since there is no room for criminals in the parliament of Georgia, former Chairperson of the parliament told journalist in response to their question whether or not Nika Melia must have his mandate suspended.  

"Obviously, this cannot be questioned; Nikanor Melia is a criminal. He committed a criminal offence for which he was brought to justice. If any kind of political retribution was sought against him, the punishment could have been more severe. However, as you see, it is lenient enough," declared Mr Kobakhidze and added that Mr Melia obviously perpetrated a crime when he went in cahoots with Mr Adeishvili and reduced Cartu bank to bankruptcy.  

With regard to the Cartu Bank bankruptcy case, member of the National Movement Nika Melia was imposed GEL 25,000 fine and was stripped of the right to occupy senior positions for 2 years and 3 months.
