Avtandil Kharadze, the ex-husband of the Parliament’s Human Rights Committee head, Sopo Kiladze has been charged with domestic violence.

In early November of 2020, Kiladze confirmed to Rustavi 2 that she had to appeal to police officers for help as she was psychologically abused by her ex-husband, Avtandil Kharadze.

Kiladze noted she is an example that any person, including an advocate of human rights, may find herself in a similar situation.

Tbilisi City Court reports that Avtandil Kharadze has been charged with psychological violence and failure to comply with the requirements of a restraining order.
