Georgy Dzhokhtaberidze, son-in-law of Georgian former president Eduard Shevardnadze and president of the Magticom mobile phone company, left the Tbilisi prison on Monday. He told the press that he \"had not transferred any money for his release. The transfer was related to the Magticom activities.\" Meanwhile, before departing to Kyiv, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili said \"the money has been transferred to the state budget from the individual account of Manana Shevardnadze, and all of it will be spent on paying pension and salary debts.\" Dzhokhtaberidze was detained for evading $350,000 in taxes. Earlier in the day, Georgian Prosecutor General Irakly Okruashvili said, \"Georgy Dzhokhtaberidze will be released and his criminal case will be closed.\" He said the release became possible after Dzhokhtaberidze\'s wife, Manana Shevardnadze, returned $15.5 million to the national budget. At first, Dzhokhtaberidze refused his release from prison, but decided to leave after the circumstances surrounding the transfer of the money were clarified. (Interfax)
