At its latest session, the Parliamentary Interim Fact-Finding Commission - tasked with reviewing the activities of political officials and parties affiliated with the ruling regime of 2003–2012 - examined allegations of corrupt agreements and violations of property rights involving public officials during that period.

The Commission heard testimony from Jondo Baghaturia, who claimed that former President Mikheil Saakashvili amassed billions in personal wealth during his presidency through what he described as systemic state-led banditry - misappropriation of state assets and expropriation from ordinary citizens.

“The evidence I submitted does not simply highlight one specific crime or the corruption of a single president and his family - shameful as that may be - but rather exposes the final stage of decay in every branch of government. It reflects a systemic crime involving all institutions associated with the state. The judiciary, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Public Registry, as well as the president’s family members and the media were all complicit”, - Baghaturia told the Commission.

He presented documents which, according to him, clearly demonstrate Saakashvili’s unexplained wealth, noting that a significant portion of his family’s property acquisitions were registered during the period leading up to the 2008 August War.

Baghaturia also alleged that Saakashvili’s mother, Giuli Alasania, orchestrated monopolies within the education sector - shutting down public schools and stripping higher education institutions of their property.
