The Service explained in a statement that the medical personnel decided to discharge the ex-president from the hospital on December 27. Mikheil Saakashvili objected to his transfer back to the Rustavi N12 Prison.

Following the nervous breakdown, he was observed with blood pressure fluctuation. Therefore, the penitentiary service temporarily postponed enforcement of the measure.

To be reminded, the ex-president Mikheil Saakashvili has been undergoing a post hunger strike recovery at the Gori Military Hospital since November 19.
