Georgian opposition leader Okruashvili...
Georgian opposition leader Okruashvili will keep accusing Saakashvili from German jail
Hello!
i think all of you have heard allready that opposition leader and former defence minister of Georgia Irakly Okruashvili had to leave his country for Germany in fear for his life. Late in September, Okruashvili accused Georgian president Saakashvili, his family and close associates of political assassinations, misusing power and corruption. Shortly after that he was arrested by order of Saakashvili and was forced to renounce his accusations (presumably, by force of tortures), after which he was released on bail of $6 ml. Then Okruashvili left for Germany where he went on accusing Saakashvili of being a tyrant and was once again arrested after Georgian authorities requested his extradition via Interpol.
One way or another, I think it is for Okruashvili's good that he got detained in Germany. When in German jail, he is in safety and can keep criticizing Saakashvili without fear to be extradited to his home country, because German authorities do not extradite political refugees. Besides that, German authorities have their own interest in affording opportunity to Okruashvili to come clean over perpetrations of Saakashvili because Georgian president is a protйgй of Washington in Georgia. And we know that Berlin is in permanent cover confrontation with Washington, Caucasus including.
