Gldani prison and detention center on the outskirts of Tbilisi - the biggest in Georgia, there are about four thousand people. The penitentiary system of Georgia, constantly criticized by the opposition and human rights activists subjected to the same stringent changes in the time Georgian police. From prison facilities carefully knocked the spirit of "thug zone", orders are given contingent of "inmates" are very strict, but fair. Thieves laws are destroyed at the root. That describes the situation in Georgian prisons and witnesses areas:





"The only type of behavior, which roll is the cultural and human. Will you behave culturally, moderately talkative and active, you will live in a neat and clean environment - and no problems. The contingent, of course, is different, and sometimes themselves have to stand up for themselves, not only in word but in his fist. Such incidents administration recognizes immediately and severely punished. To do this, even snitches do not, all the camera. So the situation has changed dramatically in recent years, about 10 years ago, in the area for the money could be everything good to eat, drink, drugs, and even bring Shmarov start it was not a problem. They all had phones and svidanki were full-time and poorly monitored. Now it is all history and simply impossible ».
