Labor Party Claims Assassination of its Leader Plotted
Nestan Kirtadze of the opposition Labor Party has claimed that an assassination attempt on party leader and presidential candidate Shalva Natelashvili was planned for shortly after polling stations close at 8pm local time.
She claimed the authorities were behind the alleged assassination attempt, which, she said, was codenamed “Bhutto” (a reference to assassinated Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto).
Kirtadze then demanded that the authorities immediately provide security for the Labor Party leader.
