A participant takes pictured during a rally after the United National Movement (UNM) leader Nika Melia has been arrested in his office during a special forces raid sanctioned by the Tbilisi City Court, in Tbilisi, Georgia. On February 17, the court ruled to put Melia back in custody for failing to pay a 40,000 Georgian lari [more than $12,000] bail in his case over civil disturbances during the June 2019 rally. Opposition forces have considered it an act of political repression, establishing tyranny, and called on supporters to take to the streets.
