Davit Topchishvili, a shepherd living in the village of Shilda in Kvareli municipality in eastern Kakheti region, told RFE/RL that 8,000 GEL (about $2,477) worth of Guda cheese (produced from sheep's milk) was stolen from his house 10 days ago.

Topchishvili told RFE/RL that the theft took place at night, when his mother and wife were at home. 

He also said that the thieves made off with his cheese in such a way so that nobody in his family heard anything.

It has been ten days since an investigation has been launched into the theft case in the village of Shilda, though nobody has been detained so far.
