(Reuters) -Police in Georgia have detained an opposition politician, his party said on Thursday, the second such detention in a little more than a week of figures denouncing government policies

On May 31, 2023, a second Georgian opposition politician, Nika Melia, was detained by Georgian authorities, as reported by his party, the United National Movement (UNM). Melia's detention follows the arrest of another UNM member, ex-lawmaker Mikheil Saakashvili, amid allegations of plotting a coup. The UNM claims these arrests are politically motivated, aimed at suppressing opposition ahead of the upcoming parliamentary elections. The Georgian government, however, insists that the detentions are part of legitimate law enforcement actions to maintain national security.
