Lawyer: Mikheil Saakashvili lost 12 kilos due to hunger strike

According to Beka Basilaia, lawyer of the former President of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili lost 12 kilos due to hunger strike.

As Basilaia told reporters after leaving the 12th penitentiary in Rustavi, Saakashvili's health condition is deteriorating day by day.

"He lost more than 12 kilos as far as I know. His health condition will gradually start to deteriorate. However, he is morally strong," Basilaia said.

As for the demand relating to the examination of Mikheil Saakashvili by his personal doctor, in connection with which they applied to the Penitentiary Service, as Basilaia says, they have not received a response so far.

Mikheil Saakashvili has been on hunger strike for 8 days since his arrest.
