Giorgi Burjanadze: We will request Mikheil Saakashvili's medical documents from the clinic Vivamedi and the medical department of the penitentiary

Doctors, members of the medical council created under the auspices of the Public Defender, acting Ombudsman, Tamar Gvaramadze and her deputy, Giorgi Burjanadze, visited the third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, at the Vivamed clinic.

As Giorgi Burjanadze said after leaving the clinic, the Public Defender's office will request and study Mikheil Saakashvili's medical documents from the Vivamedi clinic and the penitentiary institution.

"According to the observation of the representative of the medical staff, naturally, his health condition is weakened, there is a decrease in weight. The doctors talked directly about what specific medical conditions and needs they have. At this stage, we will not have specific medical results today. In the following days, we will hold a general meeting, we will discuss and analyze the opinions of doctors of different profiles, and we will have a further assessment based on that. The current strategy and plan is that we will request medical documents from both the Vivamed clinic and the medical department of the penitentiary and then actively monitor these medical documents. Based on this, it will be decided whether we will have further visits.

In the letter sent by Mikheil Saakashvili, he said that his health was deteriorating and therefore he asked us to make an additional visit. As for the non-medical assessment, at first glance his health condition has deteriorated," said Burjanadze.
