TL;DR:

Elene Khoshtaria was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison for damaging an election banner of Kakha Kaladze after writing “Russian Dream” on it during the campaign period.

The case was treated as criminal property damage. She said it was an act of political protest against Georgian Dream and done in solidarity with the activist who was detained for similar action.

She did not attend any of the court hearings and refused to pay bail as a form of protest.
