Georgia, Tbilisi, April 15 / Trend N.Kirtzkhalia /
The Parliament of Georgia will start discussing the report of the Ombudsman for 2012 on April 18.
In the first instance, the report will be discussed in the Parliamentary Committee on Human Rights. It is likely the hearing will be held in two stages.
The first phase will focus on violations during the election campaign, the facts over torture and inhuman treatment of prisoners and then further questions.
"This is a very serious report and we want to change the practice that existed in the last parliament that took the Ombudsman's report into consideration," chairman of the Committee on Human Rights Eka Beselia said, noting that the rights of victims have to be restored and perpetrators punished.
