U.S. Embassy once again expresses its deep concern over the Georgian Supreme Court's decision to keep in custody Nika Gvaramia, a media manager and director of the opposition Mtavari TV station. The statement issued by the U.S. Embassy in Georgia reads.

It is noted that the United States has raised questions and concerns about the case from the beginning, including the timing, content of the charges and punishment.

"A number of international and Georgian human rights activists have expressed their concerns. A functioning democracy is based on protecting media freedom and preventing politically motivated legal harassment.

A selective and politicized perception of justice threatens Georgia's European future and undermines the rule of justice, constitutionally protected human rights, and democracy itself", the U.S. diplomatic office in Georgia said in a statement.
