Dodi Kharkheli was allegedly detained by police near a kindergarten after dropping off his child. A video recorded by an eyewitness has been shared on social media.
"Why are you doing all this? Russian Dream, Russian terror... just because I’m at the rallies," Dodi Kharkheli's voice can be heard saying.
According to family members and friends, when the investigation began, Kharkheli’s second child, who is a minor, was at the apartment.
"The child is calling me, saying he’s scared, he's in the room and can’t explain what’s going on. I couldn’t reach Dodi because her phone was switched off when I called," the child’s uncle, Giorgi Abashidze, told journalists.
Dodi Kharkheli is actively involved in the ongoing pro-European rallies and criticizes the ruling Georgian Dream party on Facebook, where she has an audience of 15,000.
