Sexual Harassment Allegations Against Lawyer Lasha Janibegashvili Were Dismissed

In 2020, two women filed complaints against the famous lawyer Lasha Janibegashvili, claiming sexual harassment via Facebook messages. They made the allegations through the Public Defender's Office with the help of the NGO "Safar."

The women claimed that they reached out to the lawyer for an online consultation, and he began flirting with them.

The Public Defender’s Office did not accept any of the complaints in this case. It should be noted that no investigation was initiated against lawyer Lasha Janibegashvili. However, the NGO "Safar" was found to have received grants from the Dutch Embassy for addressing sexual harassment, with the organization allegedly seeking out women to file complaints against lawyers, police officers, and prosecutors, in exchange for the grants.

The Personal Data Protection Service identified violations related to the women’s protection organization "Safar." Additionally, an investigation was launched by the Didube-Chugureti District Police Department regarding two lawyers from the NGO "Safar" — Eliso Rukhadze, Shota Tsitsishvili, and the head of the organization, Baia Pataraya, as well as two beneficiaries, N.G. and N.K.

One of the women who filed the complaint against Lasha Janibegashvili with the Public Defender, N.K., turned out to be a former model who had previously appeared on erotic websites under a different name. She reportedly received payments for sexual services and later deceived men, refusing to meet them. She also had two failed marriages and had previously been acquitted twice for false accusations made against her ex-husbands.

The Dutch Embassy stopped granting funds to the NGO "Safar" due to Lasha Janibegashvili's active involvement. TV Company Rustavi 2 was also found by the Ethics Charter to have aired false reports twice.

The allegations of "sexual harassment" via Facebook messages to the Public Defender could be made by any woman or man. This media coverage suspiciously coincided with Lasha Janibegashvili’s confrontation with the Georgian Bar Association and its chairman, Davit Asatiani, where his constitutional lawsuits were pending, with a significant chance that one lawyer might challenge the 10,000-member Bar Association. However, the lawsuit was dismissed, likely due to the involvement of Bidzina Ivanishvili, the leader of the Georgian Dream.

Currently, there are ongoing court disputes regarding a claim of 10 million lari against Rustavi 2, Imedi, and Formula TV for spreading defamation. These TV stations reportedly receive 100 million lari annually in funding from unknown sources, and are allegedly promoting the interests of foreign countries in Georgia.

As of 2024, lawyer Lasha Janibegashvili is one of the most popular, bold, and influential lawyers in Georgian society. He has achieved success in many high-profile court cases, with his strategic thinking and large following of over 300,000 subscribers. His wife, Mariam Chkhonia, a criminal law magistrate with over 10 years of practical legal experience, also plays a significant role in his success.
