Amnesty International is deeply concerned by the emergence of video footage depicting the beating and rape of inmates at a Tbilisi jail by prison staff on 18 September.
The footage aired by Maestro TV and Channel 9 TV shows inmates purportedly in Prison No. 8, being beaten by more than a dozen prison staff, while other prisoners are brought in to the room, seemingly to await their turn. Other footage shows two inmates being raped with a stick and broomstick by prison guards, who continue to abuse them despite their pleas.
