Deputy Public Defender: Mikheil Saakashvili notes that any supplement he has taken, at the request of doctors, was taken as a substitute for a certain drug

Mikheil Saakashvili was dissatisfied with the information that was spread about him. He noted that he had never seen the pictures where the food supplements were placed together and did not even know where they were taken, - Deputy Public Defender Giorgi Burjanadze said after visiting the prison of former President Mikheil Saakashvili.

According to him, Mikheil Saakashvili himself expressed a desire to see the ombudsman's representative.

"The prison administration told us that the prisoner wanted to see us for some information. He was dissatisfied with the information that was released about him. He noted that he had never seen the pictures, where the food supplements were put together, nor did he know where they were taken. He notes that any supplement he has taken, at the request of doctors, was taken as a substitute for a certain drug. At this stage, the prisoner has stopped receiving all types of medical care,” Burjanadze said.

According to him, Saakashvili said that he had been offered even more products, which he categorically refused.

"We verified the medical records, which really confirm that he had been taking just milligrams of these supplements," - said the Deputy Public Defender.
