On July 3, Mikheil Saakashvili <a href="https://t.me/nexta_live/56131" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">took part</a> via video link in a court hearing on the 2007 rally dispersal case against him (when he was Georgia’s president). Saakashvili has been in custody in Georgia since October 2021. His brother David <a href="https://t.me/stranaua/112712" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">said</a>: “There is a possibility that Mikheil was poisoned, history will probably prove it later. The situation is really not good, his weight is terrible, I’m not ready to say exactly how many kilos Mikheil weighs now, but the fact is that he continues to lose weight and is on his way to death.” In February 2023 it was <a href="https://www.ekhokavkaza.com/a/%D1%81%D0%B0%D0%B0%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%88%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B8-%D0%BF%D0%BE%D1%85%D1%83%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BB-%D0%B3%D1%80%D1%83%D0%B7%D0%B8%D1%8F/32283149.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">reported</a> that Saakashvili weighed 67 kilograms (148 lbs).
