A Ministry of Foreign Affairs investigation asserts that no illegal actions, including the ‘insulting of religious feelings’ as a result of security checks, have been committed against Iranian citizens at Tbilisi International Airport.

The investigation was conducted after several Iranian citizens submitted complains about security check procedures at Tbilisi International Airport.

“The Ministry of Internal Affairs has investigated the [security check] procedures immediately. Preliminary results have not revealed any illegal actions from the side of the security officers and the Iranian side has been informed”, the MFA said today.

Representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs plan to hold a meeting with the Iranian ambassador to Georgian to discuss the issue in more detail.
