The procedures for Mikheil Saakashvili's extradition have been launched by the Prosecutor's Office of Georgia and these legal procedures have not been suspended, prosecutor Koka Katsitadze said on Thursday.

 

“As for the issue of citizenship, the loss or restoration of his citizenship has nothing to do with criminal prosecution and extradition procedures and can not affect the ongoing process. Convicted Mikheil Saakashvili will be held accountable before the Georgian justice! We would like to remind the public that he has been found guilty in Sandro Girgvliani's murder case, in beating up of Valeri Gelashvili, member of Parliament, and has been charged with embezzling public funds of the violent dispersal of November 7 rally and the illegal confiscation of Imedi TV. Prosecutor's Office will continue legal procedures for Saakashvili's extradition, "said Koka Katsitadze.
