The investigation, according to one of the participants in the incident that occurred in a hotel room in Telavi, confirmed that the girls did not splash water on the wedding guests, did not insult them, and did not damage the equipment.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", the beating of a Russian-speaking tourist by a resident of Georgia, Giorgi Chigladze, caused a stir on social media. Georgian police stated that Chigladze attacked the tourist due to an insult directed at the wedding participants. The victim's friend claims that the conflict arose because of the Russian language. A march took place in Tbilisi, where participants expressed support for Chigladze. The court in Telavi released Chigladze on bail. In court, he stated that he regretted what happened. Georgian media reported that the victim holds citizenship of Russia and Turkey. In the recording that preceded the beating of the tourist by a wedding participant in Telavi, the girl waved to the participants of the celebration from the window, but in response faced accusations that she splashed water on the equipment and insults. The victim herself stated that they did not provoke the wedding participants.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia reported, citing witnesses, that during the wedding celebration in one of the hotels in Telavi, the hotel guests insulted the participants of the celebration from the balcony of their hotel room and splashed water on the equipment from which music was playing. Subsequently, a resident of Georgia, Giorgi Chigladze, struck one of the tourists. She was taken to a clinic, and Chigladze was detained. In a letter from the detention center, he expressed regret for giving in to emotions. "I am very sorry that this woman was hurt, but I did not want this," Chigladze wrote, in particular.

Polina Kurta, the founder of the Organic brow brand, who was a participant in the conflict in the hotel room, published a video address on her Instagram page, commenting on the situation. She stated that a man burst into their room at the Agarani Estate hotel and inflicted serious injuries on her friend Yulia.

According to Polina, rumors are spreading on the internet that they "allegedly splashed people with water, and then with biological waste." "These rumors have no evidence, they are false accusations," she said.

Video address by Polina Kurta regarding the incident in the hotel room at Agarani EstateThe girl said that they came to Kakheti to celebrate the birthday of "another close friend of ours." According to her, about 20 minutes passed from the moment they checked into the hotel until the incident. They went out onto the balcony, and Polina waved to the people on the street. "We didn't even know that a wedding for 150 people was happening below. The hotel decided not to inform us about this. We did not use any foul language or insult anyone. Yulia herself did not participate; she was not looking out the window or going out onto the balcony, but was in the room. And it was she who suffered these serious injuries," Polina said.

She questions why the hotel staff did not take any action to stop the conflict.

Polina also added that, since the investigation is ongoing, she cannot provide any further comments. She mentioned that she was the one who opened the door and "should have received a punch in the nose," and she is sure that she would not have survived such a blow. She also stated that her friend Yulia is facing two surgeries.

She accompanied her video with a brief comment, writing, "The investigation confirmed the following: we did not pour water or any biological waste on the guests, we did not use foul language towards the guests, we did not insult the guests, the hotel did not warn us that a wedding celebration would take place that day, the DJ's equipment was in working order, we did not break or cause any damage to it, and the hotel did not apologize after the incident."
