Gallery: Hate groups confront activists on 14 June

The activists, led by the organizers of Tbilisi Pride, gathered in front of the Administration of Government to demand protection after the Georgian Orthodox Patriarchate released a statement calling Tbilisi Pride, planned for June 18-23 “absolutely unacceptable” and demanded from the government “not to allow it”.

Some of the radical groups and priests had already gathered ahead of the planned rally by LGBTQI activists, stating it as their objective to prevent the gathering from taking place. They shouted insults and threw small objects at the activists. Police cordon was deployed to prevent violence.

By the end of the day, the police reported to have detained nine radicals.
