Tbilisi City Court has ruled to keep journalist Nika Katsia in custody.

The decision was made by Judge Nino Tarashvili during today’s hearing, where the admissibility of evidence in Katsia’s case was discussed.

The court determined that no new circumstances have arisen to justify altering the preventive measure. Katsia was arrested on December 7 of last year on charges of drug possession.
