Irakli Bendeliani: It was reported today as if new crevices appeared on the slope near the road connecting Nutsubidze and Vashlijvari - it is unfortunate that a number of experts are deliberately spreading incorrect information

It is unfortunate that a number of experts are deliberately spreading incorrect information aimed at misinforming the public and generating panic among the population, - said Irakli Bendeliani, the deputy mayor of the capital, in connection with the landslide processes on a slope near the Machavariani Street.

According to Bendeliani, the monitoring and research work did not stop for a single minute.

"As we mentioned in the past few days, due to the high public interest, Tbilisi City Hall will promptly provide you with information about the landslide process on Machavariani Street and the surrounding slope, about the measures taken by us and as well as the planned activities. We would like to inform you once again that at this stage research-projection is underway, and at the same time, a specially created group is carrying out 24-hour monitoring.

It was reported today as if new crevices appeared on the slope. A representative of the working group will make an explanation in this regard. It is unfortunate that a number of experts are deliberately spreading incorrect information aimed at misinforming the public and generating panic among the population.

Today we heard another statement, as if Tbilisi City Hall does not allow independent experts to work on the spot. I declare with full responsibility that both the monitoring and the research work have not stopped for a single minute, the special working group consisting of high-ranking specialists work continuously.

As for outsiders, their access to the site is limited, solely due to security measures.

As you have already informed, foreign specialists will join us next week to study the situation and after that concrete works will be planned", - Bendeliani said.
