The State Security Committee of the de facto Republic of South Ossetia announced that 59-year-old Teimuraz Khomasuridze, a resident of Adzvi village, was arrested on July 13 for illegally crossing the so-called border.
"It was established that Khomasuridze deliberately crossed the state border of the Republic of Georgia near the settlement of Adzari (Adzvistavi) in the Tskhinvali region. On July 15, the Tskhinvali City Court recognized him as an administrative offender and fined him with administrative expulsion.
