Today, Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili held a meeting with the parents of Davit Saralidze, a young man killed on Khorava Street, also their attorneys and the Public Defender.

The meeting was attended by Vice Prime Minister and Interior Minister Giorgi Gakharia and Head of the Government's Administration Shalva Tadumadze.

"Unfortunately, I have not had a chance to meet with you in a quite situation. I once again offer you my sympathies, and God as my witness, I fully sympathize with you, and it all is just as tragic for me as anyone seeing the misfortune of your families," Giorgi Kvirikashvili said.

The Prime Minister familiarized himself with the Saralidze family's concerns about the murder case, also stating that he received certain information about this case from the Public Defender on June 1.

The Interior Minister provided Zaza Saralidze with information about the ongoing investigation.
As it was agreed during the meeting, the Saralidzes will familiarize themselves with the case files through the Public Defender. A similar agreement was reached with the Dadunashvili family during their meeting at the Interior Ministry a few days earlier.

A concrete format for informing Zaza Saralidze about the process of investigation was also agreed during today's meeting with the Prime Minister.
