Georgian Dream Parties’ Bank Accounts Levied

(Civil.Ge) — Bank accounts of four political parties united in six-party Georgian Dream election bloc, led by Bidzina Ivanishvili, have been levied by the authorities to collect the fine imposed on the opposition coalition in late June.

The authorities fined all six parties within the coalition, plus Ivanishvili’s public movement, with GEL 2.38 million for allegedly receiving illegal non-monetary corporate donations from Ivanishvili-affiliated company in a form of renovation works of the coalition’s regional branch offices.

In recent days over GEL 100,000 have been diverted from the Georgian Dream parties’ bank accounts to the state budget after these accounts have been seized, according to Nodar Khaduri of Ivanishvili’s party Georgian Dream-Democratic Georgia.
