Ana Abashidze, lawyer of Nikoloz Basilashvili's ex-wife Neka Dorokashvili's has released a statement after being allegedly subjected to aggression from one section of the public only because she is pursuing Dorokashvili's interests.
"Dear friends, I have never deemed pursuing oppressed people's interests an easy job. We serve our profession and believe in it. I am ignoring insulting words towards me since they are nothing in comparison to what oppressed people feel. We even share these offensive words and express solidarity with each other. I think precisely this is solidarity in the immoral campaign against this woman now," Ana Abashidze writes on social media.
Nikoloz Basilashvili, ranked 27th in the world and first in Georgia, was charged with assaulting his wife and was apprehended before his child.
Tbilisi City Court approved the defendant's motion and released him on GEL 100,000 bail.
Nikoloz Basilashvili issued a public apology after the incident.
