It will be recalled that Saakashvili secretly arrived in Georgia on September 29 last year. On October 1, he was detained in Tbilisi, after which he was placed in prison in the city of Rustavi, where he went on a hunger strike. On November 8, he was transferred from the prison in the city of Rustavi to the prison hospital in Tbilisi (Gldani district) without the consent of his relatives and lawyers. On November 20, Saakashvili was transferred to a military hospital in the city of Gori, where he stopped his hunger strike. On May 12 of this year, Saakashvili was admitted to the civil clinic "Vivamed" in Tbilisi, where he is now.
