10:30 am
so what he had to fetch as a sledgehammer today on a detox a georgian meijer and ready made by the guards who missed videos of him meets present in the i.c.u. being tortured would have been blood thinner but how long has this torture been seeking please how long have you been filming is this long. yeah i've been working as the prisons deputy chief ordered since two thousand and eight since she was full of. who gave orders to in the government knew what was going on and who kept this matter under wraps for nobody just the chief wards and i was deputy chief ford and he wanted me to film some interesting moments for example when police arrest an opposition activist or a prominent figure is arrested he wanted it on tape probably they intended to use those videos later against those people and i made those videos over the period of a year or maybe six months i'm not sure i didn't meet them in
10:31 am
a day or two they were accumulated over a period of time and eventually i had two hours of video a big chief warden would take those videos to and the whole i would take them to the president they used it for entertainment he enjoyed torturing her helpless people and their hands one c.t. you could see prison you are nobody you have no dignity this is why these videos caused such an outrage in georgia this is why all those young people are protesting at how do you know that interior minister a whole lotta soul that t.d.o. how do you know he was aware of what was going on there troy i just stood tall tales told to to i made those videos for him and then he would take the tape and i don't know what he would do with it but i feel i would often come to the god only person perhaps once or twice a week but he used to spend a lot of time talking to the chief warden in his office a call i was a very close ally of prison. in president bush called
10:32 am
a beacon of democracy he was fully aware of what was going on in prisons this is why i insist that saakashvili should resign and in time across the country it would be the minister of interior affairs or defense minister said. the president has resigned as president saakashvili must step democrats but he's no democrat he keeps the entire nation in chaos on fear he relies on criminals he has people with blood on their hands working in high positions in the government. do you think president bush meeting him about those things happening in the prison. and of course he. really was fully aware of what was going on when acholi was appointed minister in two thousand and five system was very far from european standards then saakashvili appointed akhalaia minister and started taking very tough steps he would send
10:33 am
security forces to prisons they would break into prisons and beat up in me with even a self would often be there with a camera filming everything and then i think those videos to saakashvili in order to show him what kind of prison we have built these european m.p.'s would visit any prison and they were impressed they would see how did you manage to build such a system you have four thousand inmates here and this place is so quiet we haven't heard as much as anybody speaking loudly it's almost as if there were no inmates here to talk to cheer me up why did you release this footage now. in may i asked myself whether i wanted to serve the ridge seem or to be. i tendered my resignation took the videos i had made and left the country i was afraid because i thought they would kill me so i came to belgium and asked for political. asylum
10:34 am
for by you concerns about your family yes psychosis really is mentally unstable because nobody knows what he may do after i released those videos some people called me on the phone a few times telling me to keep my mouth shut those phone calls were just a couple of days ago i secretly left georgia and came to belgium in july i have been here for three months no and for financial reasons i have been unable to bring my family here belgian institutions tell me my videos can't be published before my family comes here because nobody knows what saakashvili may do to them as soon as my family is in belgium this footage will be released when i came to belgium i played those tapes to the european commission and the european parliament and be assured me that they would keep it secret and that saakashvili would never find out about it be kept their word but somehow four or five days ago president saakashvili find out about this tape and then he told to get two of my friends who worked with
10:35 am
me at the prison and stage a beating of an inmate so those two guys beat up an innocent and meet and then the video was aired in georgian television. that they did it on my orders the purpose of this fabrication was to create an impression that i was connected to the opposition but they said i was paid two million dollars for those videos but i have never been involved in politics i have never been in a political party i don't care about politics with and why did you release this footage now shortly before the upcoming parliamentary election in no no they started this by publishing their video and they contacted two of my friends and made that video with an inmate and played it on georgian t.v. what could i do you know that i had this tape with two hours of footage that i had to defend myself with the force moved to release the video use this had nothing to do with the election. i wanted georgian people to wreak in their thinking seem
10:36 am
especially prisoners i wanted to show the entire world what their beloved democrat and beacon of freedom saakashvili was doing to his own people he doesn't love his people and he doesn't care about anyone he's a criminal and there's cramer runs him this is what i wanted to demonstrate i succeeded in that but in quite a brutal way we. came to defeat him a bit and it's how did the people inmates had to watch him did get political convictions have anything to do with that i think that's it and enough of the by he just did it for entertainment or if an inmate had something to do with politics if he was saakashvili as enemy he would pick him this is them is extremely politicized if you work in the prison system or in the police you must be loyal to the saakashvili regime no criticism is a lie so you should either leave or they will get to you they would kill me but
10:37 am
they would seize me and my whole family they would hold us hostage expel us from georgia i had to come here to appeal to the international community i've been waiting for this moment this has nothing to do with the election you know i could have published this tape in the september or in august or in the vendor but the published fabricated tape to accuse me and i had to respond. if i mean. what kind of response did you expect from european institutions when he shall listen to them. saakashvili has people who lobby for him in the european union he pays them and they are very influential it's extremely difficult to find a person here who would listen to miletus because really this entire system turns a blind eye to georgia the whole world has seen this video but when we asked people in various offices here it is as if they haven't seen as it's obvious that they just know that some. really as
10:38 am
a democrat and they don't want to see anything or hear anything the only committee that's had a strong reaction is this committee for torture in strasburg they had a very strong response. even if you were a little that's not nationally has that really reformed the georgian police force or what do you think of that. there was no reform or what are you talking about this is just a facade for outsiders inside the whole system is rotten it's all done for p.r. within it's a pyramid based on corruption at the lowest level you have police officers who don't receive bribes but if you go higher and look at the partment chiefs for example that they receive millions and right on the other hand you have traffic police who don't tell stories great just get it on the other hand you have saakashvili who built a residence for a billion dollars and go to jail for eight hundred million dollars no georgia's foreign service for over five billion in georgia's annual budget is only four
10:39 am
billion people see these things that's the big thing what happened in the gold danny prison is also happening in other georgian prisons if you don't know it wasn't was the georgian prison system has eighteen prisons and torture took place in all of them got courtyards what kind of response did you expect in georgia when you release those videos. the response has exceeded my expectations the georgian people are very emotional and they have a very strong sense of pride and dignity that's why they rose up and salute to the street and the protests are still reaching into police e day and night and other major cities and they're likely to continue i think that unless sack us feel he has totally lost his mind he will step down peacefully. he goes if a native son or a long time i west georgia and the south as as friendly. as
10:40 am
a model democracy he said that's really really was succeeded in building democracy in georgia why does the west continue to back georgia's reputation as a democratic country i would not but the image and the goals. of the qualities are political conclusion that saakashvili is a product of the us british family and everyone in georgia is aware of it he will not tolerate for psychiatrically to fail in georgia by the orange revolution failed i'm so did others he's the only one who's still there saakashvili has been saving your the america for x. or nine years so they are going to say no that has been a swindler and that's what he is a political swindler. what do you have people of georgia get from saakashvili as president when. people became smart they know that saakashvili has to go and police people canes patients but nothing substantial look at roots and find to see both like
10:41 am
a small child people of this country just the way he wants to see because he never had any clear shared jewel like other presidents to for every day and hour of their lives that he would wake up whenever he wanted to for instance and his closest circle like elia were exactly the same he watched his superior saakashvili got cracked and copied his behavior. ok how long had he been working in the prison system when did you first notice the things were getting worse the fish with the little rubber since two thousand and one so for a livin years i started noticing things were getting worse in two thousand and five since acholi is appointments so then we had criminal lords in the country but crime and torture weren't so obvious i know a polite gets drunk walks into a prison cell ice and beats up whoever he wants whichever way he wants the couple would not let him lead the way to the closet thank you very much for the interview .
