Prior to the attempted suicide, a woman was talking about debts and financial problems for 15 minutes, which were the result of unemployment in her family.
According to the 34-year-old woman, she could not start a job anywhere. She noted that she could not find a job due to the fact that she is a supporter of the "United National Movement".

According to Samadashvili, the opposition is not given the opportunity to work in the Committee on Legal Issues properly and there is no reason to remain in it.
"The head of the Legal Issues Committee, Eka Beselia does not give the opposition a possibility to run and participate in parliamentary activities.
I do not represent myself in the committee. I represent more than 800 thousand voters. Beselia does not allow the committee members to talk about important issues," she said.
