September 7-8: The mobilization of employees of budgetary organizations for the “Georgian Dream” party event in Khulo.
- On September 7-8, the head of the Khulo Educational Resource Center, employees, principals of 11 public schools, and teachers were in attendance at party meetings held by members of the “Georgian Dream” electoral list in Khulo.
This is a concern, as it may be the result of the coercion of subordinates or other dependent individuals to participate in the election campaign. This hypothesis is corroborated by the evidence, which indicates that the SSS and the governing party have exercised significant control over school principals in recent years as a demonstration of their loyalty to the ruling party. Under Article 150 of the Criminal Code, it is unlawful to coerce an individual to perform an action abstinence from which is their right.
