Georgian authorities plan to file a complaint with the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in the coming days over a recent investigation suggesting the possible use of chemical agents against protesters in late 2024, Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili told reporters on Thursday.
The State Security Service of Georgia (SSSG) has launched an investigation into the BBC’s publication alleging that Georgian authorities used a World War I–era chemical agent during last year’s protests. The agency says the probe has been opened under two articles of the Criminal Code: exceeding official powers and assisting a foreign organization in hostile activities.
