Lawyer says highest risk that Saakashvili is facing now is heart failure

The highest risk that Saakashvili is facing now is heart failure, - Nika Gvaramia, the lawyer of the third president of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili, said at the briefing.

According to Nika Gvaramia, the 18th penitentiary medical institution is not a C-category multifunctional clinic defined by the conclusion of the commission and it does not have proper technical equipment.

"The highest risk that Saakashvili is facing now is the risk of heart failure, therefore, there should be a second level of cardiology service in the prison hospital, namely interventional cardiology. Although there are doctors of different profiles in the prison hospital, this does not allow for different types of services to be provided. Saakashvili's problems cover a very wide range of medical needs," Nika Gvaramia said.
