Pro-European protests in Tbilisi have continued for 574 consecutive days.

Participants in a rally outside the Georgian Parliament on the 574th day of protests expressed solidarity with Nana Sander, who was convicted today in the case of the attempted seizure of the presidential palace in Georgia on October 4, 2025. Sander's lawyer reported the grave psychological state of his client.

As "Caucasian Knot" reported, on June 23, participants in a rally outside the Georgian Parliament on the 573rd day of protests responded to the ECHR ruling in the joint case of Georgian servicemen who were tortured and killed in Russian captivity.

Supporters of Georgia's European integration took to Rustaveli Avenue in front of the Georgian Parliament this evening for the 574th day in a row. Activists held national and EU flags, and some also carried US and Ukrainian flags. According to a video posted on social media by Tamar Bartaia, approximately 100 people participated in the rally.

The protesters again demanded the release of political prisoners. Demonstrators held signs reading: "Fire of the Oligarchy," "Glory to the Heroes," "Never Surrender," "Solidarity for Nana Sander," "Freedom for Mzia Amaglobeli," "Don't Give in," and "Freedom for Political Prisoners," according to photographs posted on the Facebook page* of photographer Giorgi Mosiashvili (Mo Se).

A representative of the Council of Europe's Committee on Torture visited convicted prisoner Nana Sander in Tbilisi several weeks ago during a visit. Her lawyer, Nikoloz Bolkvadze, reported this, according to the Pirveli TV channel.

Furthermore, the lawyer stated that Nana Sander attempted suicide in prison due to psychological pressure, which the lawyer reported to Public Defender Levan Ioseliani, but this information has been completely ignored to this day.

"Ultimately, unable to withstand the psychological pressure, she attempted suicide, which I immediately informed Levan Ioseliani about and filed a complaint. Moreover, the chairman of one of the departments of the Council of Europe Committee on Torture, Boris Vuts, also visited about three weeks ago and held a lengthy meeting with Nana Sander. I filed two complaints with the Public Defender's office and called him three times. I was told that they were in the investigation stage and would contact me, and that they would send me a written notification, but so far there has been complete silence," Nikoloz said. Bolkvadze.

Protesters in Georgia have been demanding new parliamentary elections and the release of political prisoners since November 28, 2024. Security forces violently dispersed the protests, using tear gas and water cannons, and detained protesters. Thousands of people were subjected to administrative prosecution during the protests.
