Nana Sander, who had been sentenced to seven years in jail in connection with the October 4, 2025 election-day unrest in Tbilisi, is another person convicted in the case to leave prison early after the Court of Appeals approved a plea agreement with prosecutors. She is set to be released on November 6.
Judge Paata Silagadze approved the plea agreement on November 2 after she pleaded guilty, reducing her original seven-year prison sentence to one year and one month, followed by a two-year suspended sentence.
In a June 24 ruling, Tbilisi City Court found Sander guilty on charges of “organizing group violence.” Sander, who has lived in emigration prior to arriving in Georgia to take part in the protests, has reported physical and mental health deterioration while in detention.
In the same case, the judge upheld the sentences of two other defendants, Mariam Mekantslishvili and Abo Naveriani. Naveriani was sentenced to five years in prison, while Mekantslishvili received a GEL 5,000 [USD 1,923] fine.
Unrest erupted in Tbilisi on October 4, 2025, the day of a partially boycotted municipal election. Following a call by organizers of a rally advocating what they described as a “peaceful revolution,” a group of protesters attempted to enter the presidential palace in downtown Tbilisi but were repelled by the police.
The latest agreement follows a series of plea deals involving dozens of defendants prosecuted over the October 4 events. On October 28, the Court of Appeals approved plea agreements for four other defendants, including Murtaz Zodelava, Lasha Beridze, Irakli Chkhvirkia and Guri Zhvania.
A total of 64 people, including opposition politicians, have been charged in connection with the unrest. More than half of them have secured early release through plea agreements or a presidential pardon.

To understand Putin’s decision-making,
observers must realize that the accident is often the message itself. By utilizing events that occupy the gray zone between deliberate aggression and random misfortune, the Kremlin successfully projects power, commands fear, and avoids direct accountability.

Preparations are nearing completion for the opening of the house museum dedicated to legendary Armenian military commander & national hero Andranik Ozanian in Varna’s Galata district. Final finishing work is already underway, according to the museum’s official page.
The memorial has a symbolic connection to the First Balkan War of 1912–1913, during which Andranik Ozanian & Garegin Nzhdeh served in the Bulgarian Army & fought against the Ottoman Empire.
