Minister Shervashidze at session of the Senate
Astoria K’alak’i, Stormereti - In a new development, the Independent Journalist Union has revealed facts tying rector of State University of Astoria K’alak’i, Tamazi Balavadze, who is suspected of large-scale corruption, tying him to the Minister of Education and Science Tamazi Shervashidze. According to the organisation, Shervashidze has supported Balavadze in his activities and even supported him in receiving more grants and funds.
Minister Shervashidze has refuted these allegations, claiming to only have met Balavadze on official occasions. Despite this, he has also kept on insisting that Balvadze is fully innocent and that there is no corruption at the university. Chief of the Anti-Corruption Department of the Hobrazian Police, Ioseb Khutsishvili, has also declared the accusations as completely baseless and so nonsensical that the department won't even bother to investigate them.
However, this total dismissal has led to growing suspicion within the populace, especially among the youth, that Balavadze might be tied to more members of the government than just to Shervashidze. The anti-corruption organisation Transparent Hobrazia has announced that if the Anti-Corruption Department doesn't start a proper investigation within 6 months, they will cooperate with students of the university to sue Balavadze and others involved.
