Corrections Ministry says one of the prisoners presumably attempted suicide
Ministry of Corrections and Legal Assistance of Georgia has released a statement about the wounded prisoner at the Gldani prison #8.
"The prison administration immediately provided a medical assistance to the prisoner, after which he was transferred to the civil sector clinic. The health condition of the prisoner is serious but stable,” the Ministry wrote.
The ministry has already launched an investigation under the article which envisages bringing a person to suicide.

The injured was charged for premeditated murder and was serving his sentence.
