He also said in this case, decisions made by her, as a justice minister, cannot be considered legal.

Ms. Tsulukiani on her side posted a special address on her Facebook page. "I returned to Georgia today. I`d like to thank all my supporters and call them to stay calm. Evidently, the next several weeks seem to be a difficult period for the cohabitation. Verbal attacks on the government and its members are expected to become more frequent. I, as a government member, consider it my duty to give the society en example of calmness", she said adding that some of the accusations are not worth of her reply.
The minister said she intends to hold a televised interview on Tuesday, during which she will answer all the questions of media.
