The Commission heard the one of the former owners of TV Company “Obiektivi”, Guram Kvirikashvili. According to him, in 2008, Nodar Charkhalashvili conveyed the share to him and then he granted the company and the license to the state. The Commission was interested what was the reason and the reason thereof. “Obiektivi was registered on me possessing 12000 GEL. Kakha Ninua asked me to buy this share. I then alienated this share to the stated. I did not want to be this company on my name. I conveyed the power of attorney to the lawyer, representing my interests to GNCC”, - he stated. On the question why he was accountable to Ninua, he answered that they had a long relationship. “In order to let the wife of my friend start working, I had to register the share of 10000 GEL on me. What happened in fact I found out recently via newspaper”, - he noted. The Chair, Tina Khidasheli was interested if he knew that he had to alienate this share to state. As the answer was, he confronted forced “alienation” many times. According to him, in post-war period, when the Chamber of Control was repaired, his daughter company allocated 200 000 GEL to the state for it. The reason was blackmail of Kvirikashvili’s father. Despite the fact that Kvirikashvili many times “alienated” his share, in 2010 the Prosecutor General withdrew the documentation from his construction company RDI. According to him, no violation was found in financial issues though 3 employees were detained: worker, supplier and head. “They were detained without ground. We held the trade in Zaza Kachibaia’s office to release these people. They asked for money too. Innocent employees were released on plea agreement”, - he stated and added that after that the company repaired the sports palace in Kvareli and again “alienated” it to the state. “I was handed the draft by Kachibaia in the Prosecutor’s office about the design of the building. At the place the Kvareli Governor, Levan Gamsakhurdia was controlling this process. We also repaired the building of MSS, in 2011, the we refused to obtain 500 000 GEL from the work for 6 500 000 GEL on Headquarter”, - he stated. According to him the Defense Minister was Bacho Akhalaia, Vakhtang Gordadze was controlling the building sphere and the Prosecutor’s office decided the money issues. today the Commission asked the questions to the Head of GNCC Monitoring Department, Mikheil Gotoshia on monitoring methodology, termination of mobile companies and subject selection. According to him, before August war 2008, he studied existence of Russian megafon and tv channels in conflict zone. As he stated, the General Kurashvili helped him to find megafon sim cards. “Before the war Kurashvili and Arveladze provided me with the huge amount of cards. As it appeared all of them were locked which entailed doubt as Georgian communication failed. I and Karbelashvili checked the GSM coverage. Russian companies have already started broadcasting and we had to find and block the towers”, - he recalled. According to him, when the west was separated from east, only two cables existed: one along the old motor road and another along the rail road. The first Russian bomb damaged the first cable and another bomb - another cable. “We could restore the communication in 24 hours. The Army was isolated, no communication. Karashvili asked if I could restore the communication. The device was very expensive. We bought two of them and 2 were granted by the then head of Geocell which we handed to Karbelashvili and they disappeared”, - he noted. In opinion by Commission member Ani Mirotadze, the state must have not relied on private persons and must have had alternative sources. “Alternative communications should not serve only for war. It is necessary to have a circle in order to provide uninterrupted communication. We still do not have this possibility” – Gotoshia stated. As to the selection of subjects, Gotoshia noted that this process was held by several principles, including preliminarily outlined plan. The Commission introduced own opinion on termination of mobile companies, considering it wrong the argument of mobile companies that according to the new system, the state budget lacks significant amounts. “According to the new system, there is amount more than 64 million USD transferred to the budget and it is not a lack but incoming money. We offered the Commission sundry schemes to protect everyone’s interests. The Commission answered that it could note define two tariffs. I suppose that there already exist two tariffs”, - he stated. As it was noted, the next sitting will be held on October 3.
