The Georgian State Security Service and Interior Ministry have seized presumed spare parts of armoured military vehicles following a search of a location adjacent to a house in the country’s north-eastern Dusheti municipality.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the Service said the parts - for “various types of military armour” - had been stored near a citizen's house.

It also said the items had been found during a search launched after a judge had issued a warrant for the operation, adding professionals were examining the recovered parts.

The crime is punishable by three to six years imprisonment.
